They then informed the class and whoever wanted to see the story was allowed to exit the classroom and gather in front of the tv. We were all bawling like babies when all of the sudden, the second plane hit the other tower. I SAW that. I saw, from the outside, hundreds of lives being ended. It was a horrible experience then, and it will be horrible to see it depicted again. We live in a time when terror is no longer a surprise. The things that humans do to each other... it should be unthinkable. I am amazed at how little surprises me. I'm 17 years old and when I hear that a child has been sexually assulted, a teen has slaughtered his schoolmates, a husband has killed his wife... I see it as something that has happened before. Over and over again. There is no shock at the news as there should be. I hate this so very much. To think of all of those who were only little kids when 9/11 happened... It brings tears to my eyes. They were robbed of their inocence and some of them, their families. A part of me says 'Good, someone has decided to make a movie to honor those whose lives were lost. Either in the attack, or as a result from it.' and another part thinks it's wrong for someone to capitalize off of such a tragic event in the history of this country, nay, the history of this world. I don't know... I'm sorry if none of this makes sense. I just needed to say it, ya know? :(
