Subject: You guys, You guys, You guys! Author: A scared Sil [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:45:38 09/11/01 Tue The World Trade Center (Twin Towers) and the Pentagon 'ave been 'it! I am so scared. I live in America, and do they hate us that much? I didn't do anything! My language arts teacher's brother was in New York and my teacher was crying and trying to call 'im. This is SCARY! WAAAAAH! What is a young female squirrel t'do? Help me! Is it the world ending? Make it better, fix it! We are the big American Super-power, we aren't s'posed t'get hit! 50,000 people were in just the Twin Towers, excluding the Pentagon. All those people gone...

Subject Author Date OHMIGOD! I heard about it when I came back from school. It is so terrible, let's just hope that this doesn't start WW3. I hope your teachers's brother is OK. *hugs* (NT) Willow who sends her hugs to every American beast out there 13:35:38 09/11/01 Tue the Uk has said it will stand shoulder to shoulder with the USA in the stand against terrorism. The people who did this are sick. And you are right, you didn't do anything wrong. Nobody has admitted to it yet, have they? (NT) Willow who sends her hugs to every American beast out there 13:41:59 09/11/01 Tue ooc: I saw it when I got home too! That is really scary! My sister(Tangle) got too upset to RP today. No-one has confessed to it yet, but they have a small idea who it is. I can't believe it's all gone! (NT) Lancepaw 13:50:48 09/11/01 Tue Ya, I myself suspect many middle eastern countries, but all we have over here are rumors. Thousands dying because of the crazy will of some disturbed, crazy, mentally sad person. My laungage teacher is soooo cool! I feel so bad for her. I am randomly typing whatever comes into my nervous mind. I hope that is ok with you. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 14:12:49 09/11/01 Tue I'm so sorry!! its just too horrible! We have been watching the news footage on cable and the Beeb (NT) Tangle 14:36:08 09/11/01 Tue There is a terrorist hiding in Afganistan that many think may be behind it. The world Trade Building #7 has gone up in a poof of smoke, but it is believed that it was evacuated. They are also worrying about building #5 colapsing, but it to has been evacuated. President Bush is going to make a stament tonight at nine. I am soooooooooo scared! We were planning a trip to Washington D.C. and that could have been us. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 16:01:25 09/11/01 Tue *looks nervously around* I saw it 4th period today in school...my orchestra teacher said we'll remember this like she remembers JFK's assassination. I'm not ashamed to admit, I'm scared....President Bush will talk in about 15 minutes, hopefully he'll have somethin' comforting t'say...*shudders* I saw the tower fall, it was horrible... (NT) Dakkan who feels really sick right now... 17:14:59 09/11/01 Tue This is really awful! All those people..... who could do something like that? (NT) Marina the worried 07:04:12 09/12/01 Wed Does your language teacher know if her brother is OK, silvershadow? I don't know if my ears are functioning, but did Bush just say that there will be a war? It just doesn't seem real. (NT) Willow the freaked 09:29:29 09/12/01 Wed Yes, there may be a war. My teacher's brother is ok, and so is everyone else I know. My dad's old neighbor, and our good friend, was in the Pentagon when the other side was crashed into. He said that most of the people were out of that 5th because of renovation and the reason the fire didn't spread was because the 5th right beside the one burning had already been reinovated with fire-proof bomb doors. The piolet's it turns out were foriegn and were actually trained in FLORIDA! Our own country! **mutters** All of those people... **snaps out of it** We have declared war against who ever did this, and England, Russia, and Israel promised to help us find trapped people, and destroy whoever has commited this dispicable sin. **keeps muttering**All those people... (NT) -- Silvershadow, 12:06:37 09/12/01 Wed It seems that just a couple of days ago everything was fine and it all changed in a matter of hours. It's overwhelming and very scary. (NT) Marina 12:14:45 09/12/01 Wed I know, I was in language arts yesterday when another teacher walked in and told my teacher to turn on the TV. Everything <I>was</I> normal. I am so scared. We know many who may have done it. Right now people and parts of people are being dug out of the rubble. Imagine being trapped in there for hours or days. You can't move, are being crushed, in pain, and are hungry. Many probably will run out of oxygen before being saved. Pretty depressing and dreary. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 12:54:11 09/12/01 Wed Yeah, don't you worry sil, America are not alone in fighting this new breed of evil. Did you guys see those people celebrating? un-bloody-believable! What do you guys think will happen next? (NT) Willow 14:04:31 09/12/01 Wed I don't blame the celebrating Pakastans. That is all they have been taught, but the person who did it must have known it was wrong. I can't believe that people would go so low as to killing thousands for no apparent reason. They are the ones who should be punished. I mean if you say, "An American died, here is a piece of candy," to a six year old they will say, "Gee, I wish Americans died more often!" It is not their fault. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 16:02:27 09/12/01 Wed I saw the pictures today in the paper of the New York skyline... it looks totally bare. I feel so sorry for all the innocent people involved, they have my sympathies. (NT) Marina 12:06:00 09/13/01 Thu Yes, New York is flat now. More buildings are falling by the hour. The know the identities of the 18 high jackers on the planes, and they have two people in custudy for questioning. All of the people are of Arab decent, and a major thoery is that it was done by Asamed Ben Laden (a muslim terrorist who hates the U.S. and has a lot of money). Another rumor is as I mentioned earlier Sadam Husane, the Iraqi leader who also hates the U.S. The real scary thing is not knowing who it is, and knowing he is still alive. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 12:17:22 09/13/01 Thu I think though that you Americans have really shown yourselves to be brave and caring. A lot of the programmes and films made in the USA often give us the opposite impression, I think the whole world admires you all now. (NT) -- Tangle, 11:32:31 09/14/01 Fri Not everyone likes us. Look at the ones who did this to us. Y'know what my dad said? Of course not, that is why I am going to tell you. He said that if they ever asked for some normal, average Joe volunteers to help out clearing reckage that me and him would grab a few pairs of clothes, some canned food, and head for New York. I am feeling so bad right now for not helping. They have only found about 10 live people in the wreckage. They also changed the estimate and only have 5,000 people unaccounted for. They found the black box in the Pa. plane and are doing dna tests on the remains of the person in the cockpit to find out who was the unknown hero. They are building a new high school in our district and I think they should name it after the brave civilians who took over the plane and crashed it before the murderers could crash it into another important building. (NT) Silvershadow 12:43:13 09/14/01 Fri That is a really nice idea, sil. People like this need some recognition (NT) Willow 13:13:22 09/14/01 Fri I think the war Bush was talkin' about was a war on terrorism, though I personally think there will be a real war. I just hope the whole world doesn't go against us. I feel sorry for Bush though...he's got to be PRESIDENT while all this is happening. I heard some of the people on my school bus who think when we find out whose country did this we should blow their nation off the map with a few nukes, but come on. We're supposed to be the good guys here, and doing that will make us no better than the terrorists. I'm glad there are no important buildings near where Silver & I live. (NT) Dakkan 14:12:31 09/14/01 Fri All of Britain and Europe had a three minute silence today at 11 o clock in the morning. There was a BIG church service at Westminster Abbey (I think) the queen went. All the schools took part and everyone all over europe were praying for and supporting America. (NT) -- Tangle, 15:25:23 09/14/01 Fri I agree, Dakkan. America shouldn't lower themselves to the terrorist's level. (NT) Willow 05:29:45 09/15/01 Sat I still think we should nuke Afganistan and Iraq. We had two separate moments of silence yesterday. One was at noon and the other was at 7:00 at night and we were supposed to light a candle in remembrance. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 10:41:09 09/15/01 Sat We had a three minute silence at school on Friday. Not sure you should nuke the entire country, but the people behind the hijackings <b>will<b> pay for what they have done. (NT) Marina 11:40:01 09/17/01 Mon Hey, you unwittingly quoted President Bush! Weird... (NT) -- Silvershadow, 12:25:25 09/17/01 Mon I agree with Marina-it's not fair to nuke a country of the face of the earth. (NT) Willoww 13:33:52 09/17/01 Mon Still... (NT) -- Silvershadow, 13:49:28 09/17/01 Mon The thing is, now everyone hates the Muslims - when it's not really the Muslims who are to blame if you get me meanin'. Y'know, it's not the whole Muslim community it's just a group of twisted sickos that thought that by killing thousands of innocent people it would show their power. (Their so powerful that they ran away and hid) Innocent Muslim people in the Uk at the moment are being attacked in the streets and receiving hate mail! It all has to stop! (NT) Marina 08:16:21 09/18/01 Tue Muslims are cool, hate is bad, and revenge is sweet. (NT) -- Silvershadow, 12:24:06 09/18/01 Tue I'm going to say something contraversial ... The IRA have bombed lots of INNOCENT people in Britain and do you know where most of the funding other than from drug trafficking comes from? AMERICA. Now if every time they did something we decided to nuke them and their supporters ... who would we be nuking???? (NT) -- Tangle, 14:13:54 09/18/01 Tue Re: I'm going to say something contraversial ... The IRA have bombed lots of INNOCENT people in Britain and do you know where most of the funding other than from drug trafficking comes from? AMERICA. Now if every time they did something we decided to nuke them and their supporters ... who would we be nuking???? -- Brittish person, 07:14:54 09/23/01 Sun Yes, well that is contraversial, but if every country paid us fer the services we have done fer them we would have our national debt literally paid off. (NT) Slvershadow 15:10:31 09/18/01 Tue I agree but what I'm saying is you cant blame everyone for the actions of a few maniacs, to nuke a country because of a few horrible sickos is not on. (NT) -- Tangle, 08:58:53 09/19/01 Wed ok ok! But I am still angry, and I have no clue as to who to be angry at. Can't I just say NUKE THE AFGANISTANESE to release my anger? (NT) -- Silvershadow who doesn't want to offend and Afganistanese., 12:12:34 09/19/01 Wed As long as it's harmless. I heard that some people have been throwing rocks and such at Middle-Eastern people. Here's a cute story I found on the net. (inside) -- Dakkan, 18:17:53 09/19/01 Wed That sums it all up in one. (NT) Marina 08:15:19 09/20/01 Thu I love that poem! Ya, it is harmless, and I don' 'ave so much anger anymore so it is all ok now. (NT) Silvershadow 18:08:56 09/20/01 Thu
