"...Armchair warrior here..."

Clearly.

"...No one thought to attack in any way shape or form (from back with object)? There were over 300 people there. Were they all cowards?..."

It was dark. Victims had been drinking. There was loud music and bright flashing lights. There apparently was only a single functioning door...that the murderous terrorist gunman (who had cased the place for months) was guarding.

"... Todd Beamer was probably not expecting an attack either..."

Poor comparison. September 11th airplane passengers likely thought it was a plain-vanilla hijacking and they would be flown to Cuba or wherever for negotiations.

Todd Beamer and the other heroes of Flight# 93 learned about the other flights being suicide missions and THAT is the crucial information they (THANKFULLY) had to attack with food service carts, belts, and pots of boiling water in an attempt to regain control of the aircraft.

From their cell phones.

"Our" government's first action?

Ban the use of cell phones on airliners.

Speaks volumes, don't it?
