    Yeah it’s the cowardice that really pisses me off the most, that really gets to me. If we truly were so strong and proud we would’ve plugged the holes in airplane security quick and easy, sent in some special ops to capture Bin Laden, and most importantly, simply rebuild the towers exactly as they were before but updated and better, as a big fuck you to the terrorists. But instead…well, you know the rest.

      To be fair, we did most of that, but we also added all this extra stuff that is totally unnecessary and made air travel a nightmare. Like honestly, is an airplane really that much bigger of a terrorist threat than hijacking a bus full of people, or a train and causing a head on derailment or something ala East Palestine?

      I think we need to rethink a lot of post-9-11 changes, and I hope as more people in my generation get older they’ll draw similar conclusions.
