Appreciate your removing the bar and grill aspect of our threads. Our country is in a state of sober emergency and pain. God Bless America.

Many churches are organizing special services tonight.

I'm holding hands with all of you and praying.

[Fred Mertz]

We are at war. I hope our nation rises to the occasion; freedom is not free. We have witnessed today a series of events that dwarf Pearl Harbor.

I sense a strong measure of resolve across the nation. We are unified and we must deliver devastating punishment or it will continue to happen to us.

Lord, bless those thousands of innocent souls who perished today. Amen.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

God, Please Bless America and guide and help unite our nation in this troubled time.
Please Welcome Home those who have lost their lives today.
Please comfort those who lost their family members and friends.
Please bless and comfort those who are injured.
Please bless and protect those who are helping the injured.

[JRadcliffe]

Let us pray that the culprits will be bought to justice.

Let's hope that the government does not use this terrorist attack as justification for the further errosion of the Bill of Rights. This is especially true now that we have technology, which can be unconstitutionally, along the temptation to react in a knee-jerk fashion.

The worst thing we can do is be fearful. We must return to our daily lives as quickly as possible, and continue to advocate freedom.

Report:

We were evacuated from the train at Brooklyn Bridge\City Hall. There was a line of cops extending across the street, turning us uptown. After a six mile forced march with a 50 lb. bag, I'm staying at my aunt's house in Manhattan. I just realized that the WTC collapsed; didn't stop along the way and didn't watch TV. Geez, there's gonna be a lotta dead folk.

Just heard fighter jets scrambling 15 min ago...

Pataki says that the primary election (and this morning's vote for Badillo) was cancelled.

I work 1 block from the WTC- Thank God I don't come in till 10:00 am

[acnielsen guy]

Thanks tomkat - I've been hoping all day that we could have a thread to discuss this tragedy and read the views of the people we know.

[Jeff Gordon Fan]

I just got back from school.. and we watched about 10 minutes of it in english and then I went to journalism and watched all period. For some reason classes went on normally some students went home, but I don't know why they jsut didn't cancel school because of this tragedy. Everyone needs to be home to confort others.
