I do support that WWII memorial on the mall. My Dad fis a combat vet from the Pcific, my uncle died in a B-17 over Germany.
Let's make sure it doesn't take as long for these heroes.

"There's not much time.
A few of us have voted to do something.
They're going to kill us anyway, so we might as well die fighting."

To: Jeff Head, FReepers Please Sign the Petition to Establish a Nat'l Monument for Flight 93
LET'S ROLL!"These are the times that try men's souls.
The summer soldier and sunshine patriot will,
in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country;
but he that stands it now,
deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered;
yet we have this consolation with us,
that the harder the conflict,
the more glorious the triumph."
Written by Private Thomas Paine while sitting at a campfire with his fellow soldiers using a battle drum as his desk. He called it The American Crisis in which he hoped to bolster the declining spirit of the Continental Army after suffering a disasterous defeat in New York and had to retreat into New Jersey. On Christmas Eve, 1776, General George Washington oredered Paine's words to be read out loud to the soldiers.
After reading the pamphlet, the American troops crossed the Delaware and launched a surprise attack on the Hessian soldiers at Trenton.
This victory clearly showed that Americans will not give up their liberty without a fight. And so too, did the brave passengers of Flight 93.

You know, I had never noticed it before, but as I reread that statement, I was struck with a sense of true American pride. How many people in other countries would even think to VOTE to do something -- especially at a time of extreme crisis?
These were true Americans to the end. People of a tyrant nation would NEVER think to vote about anything.
Tears of absolute pride are welling up again -- just when I thought I didn't have any tears left...
GOD bless America! GOD bless her people!
To: Jeff Head
I disagree totally with this petition. We will honor these victims, but not on that spot. If we don't rebuild on this site, then the terrorists will have succeeded in crippling our economy.
To: Patriotic Bostonian
You are misreading this petition entirely. Read the petition. It is not about the WTC site, it is about the crash site of United Flight 93 in a Pennsylvania field ... the one that the passengers tried to retake the plane.
Regards.

Okay, myself and the others have decided to jump on the hijacker wearing the bomb. I know I'm not going to get out of this. "God help me. Jesus help me. Are you ready? Let's roll." - Todd Beamer
We're all back here getting hot water together and getting ready to take over the plane."
"I love you honey. Let Shenan, Alexandria and Nathan know I love them."
"We're all running to first class, I've got to go. Bye." - Sandra Bradshaw
"OK, The others and myself have voted to attack the terrorists. I have my butter knife from breakfast. You know, Im going to leave the phone here. Stay on the line, Ill be back. [He never came back] - Jeremy Glick
"I know we're all going to die, but we are going to do something, I love you honey." - Tom Burnett
"There's not much time. A few of us have voted to do something. They're going to kill us anyway, so we might as well die fighting." - Linda Gronlund
