...without tradegy as a landmark. It's unfortunate it takes mass inhiliation for you to come to grips with your location in all of history and your place in the world.
Yes, it will be something we tell our grandkids, it will be an interesting story. But with age also comes understanding of TACT, and hanging the "cool" moniker on these events, is without that.
True, you aren't saying anything that no one here doesn't understand or even agree with in some way, you just say it in an incredibly stupid way.
History unfolds each day, and those of us who see the beauty of life unfold in front of us all the time are gonna be annoyed when your "aha" moment is announced on the heels of sheer tragedy.

ps. caps are still annoying.
: SEE, THERE ARE COOL THINGS HAPPENING DUE TO THIS. I THINK MANY OF YOU ARE MISCONSTRUING ME SAYING ITS COOL AS ME THINKING THE ACTS THAT HAVE BEEN COMMITTED UPON THE INNOCENT ARE COOL. NOT AT ALL. I THINK THEY ARE HORRIBLE AND THE PEOPLE WHO DID IT SHOULD PAY. I THINK THE FACT THAT WE ARE LIVING THROUGH HISTORY IS COOL. ITS A WAY TO LOOK AT THIS AS NOT A COMPLETE DOWNER OF A DAY. SOME OF US CHOOSE TO LOOK AT THINGS IN A BRIGHTER LIGHT. WELL, I FOUND SOME HAPPINESS IN KNOWING THAT IN A DAY WHEN THE MOST HORRIBLE THING OF MY GENERATION HAPPENED, I WAS ABLE TO FIND SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. I HAVE BEEN TALKING TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY ALL MORNING ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I THINK ITS AWSOME TO SEE ITS EFFECT ON THE NATION.
