Well, I don't know about the rest of you .. but I sit here asking myself, what in the HECK were they doing there? If it were me .. I would not go to school in a war zone. If it were MY children, I would not send them to school in a war zone.

Don't misunderstand me .. I don't like to see Americans die .. anywhere. But doesn't anyone else think common sense should play a role in this?

Absolutely. The first rule of defense is, "don't be there when it happens."

90% of the bad things that happen to people happen, because they were where they knew they shouldn't be.

The second rule of defense is, "there are no other rules, do whatever is required, think 'kill' first."

You are so right. It's their fault that they got killed. We should all recognize the fact that the terriorists don't like us so we should just hide in our basements.

Well, I'm sitting here too, and the first question that comes to my mind is NOT what in the heck were they doing there. The first question that comes to my mind is how could the killers commit such an OUTRAGEOUS act against five of my fellow country people?

But that's just me -- and not you.

For heavens sake, don't send them to NYU! Because New York City is a war zone. I hate to break through all that haze over where you live, but Jihad has been declared and followed through on America. Jihad means war. As in America is a War Zone.

If you want to not live in a war zone, tell me, where you going to move? Because Jihad has been declared on 18 other countries, all around the globe. I suggest you start getting my point. If the WTC will not wake up America that all is not the same, what is it going to take.

Let me bet, you went to Wal-Mart yesterday to get something to decorate your house... Uh, people, when are we going to get serious about life and stop building castles in the sand?
