Where were you when the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks occurred?

Question

I was in my 5th period American History Class my freshman year of high school and we just happened to have the TV on when it happened. I thought it was a joke, and I actually found out later that my second cousin was on the subway underneath the pentagon. He was okay though. So where were you when you found out?

Answer 1

I was just finishing school (uk) when the planes hit, and when i came home we saw the first tower collapse live on tv.

Answer 2

I was in my office.

Thank you for the reminder of how gullible I once was to believe the official explanation.

For some people, asking this question is akin to brainwashing.  Prompting people to go back in their minds awakens the underling fear.  That's a nifty propaganda tool used by the criminals in government and the main stream media to keep people afraid of terrorism.

Our changes of being injured by Arab terrorism are about the same as being struck by lightning.  The war on terror, as advertised is a fraud.  We have much more to fear from the criminals inside the government who have EXPLOITED 9/11 to further their agenda for profit and power, and to gradually dismantle our civil rights and privacy.  The main stream media is in on the exploitation because their owners profit from the war and war on terror.

The war on terror as advertised is a fraud.  Arab terrorists exists and they hate us. The hate us because of our foreign policy, not for our freedom.  Don't buy the lie.

Don't be fearful, wake up, be angry.  The best way to safeguard ourselves from future terrorist attacks is to vote out the criminals who allowed them to happen unchallenged.
