Never Forget

[Brony kaiju soldier]

It's a day I won't forget as long as I live. I was living in new york at the time but not in the city I was living in putnam valley at the time. The event affected me pretty badly I was drawing pictures of it for the next 3-6 months after it happened. It's just so horrible.

[Brony kaiju soldier]

I was just 6 years old

[Storm-Chaser]

I was 7 years old when it happened.

I just need to put this out there, feel free to bring the mighty wrath of The Banhammer upon me, but this really can't go unsaid.
During 9-11, roughly 3,000 people died, during the bombing of Afghanistan, or hell the entire war, an uncountable number of civilians died, surely going at least five times higher than 9-11, yeah i'm an awful person and "What do I know?" Maybe you lost someone dear during the crash, and yes it is tragic, you're acting out on it thirteen years later and all that, but it's simply something you need to realize, Cause does not justify action, and effect does not justify cause.

Afghanistan.

I will certainly never forget the day, I was thirteen at the time. It definitely changed the way I looked at the world. Not that I was naive, but it certainly opened my eyes to the hatred that exists out there. And for the longest time every plane seemed to be flying a little too low.

2446021 Most of us were just kids. Too young to understand what was going on at the time.

[SuperPinkBrony12]

2446041 Indeed, and now look at where we are because of it.

Call me cynical, but I remember it as the day that rattling off a pair of numbers became justification of choice for just about any political agenda imaginable.

[Big Baby]

You guys won't let me forget.

My dear goodness. I don't want to sound rude. But please. Stop bringing this up. Every year. I get bombarded with complainings about this. I'm sick of it. Sure, it was bad. But please. Why are you all bringing this up, over and over. Why?

Because to some of us it is important

[Derec mc coy]

2446305 oh I feel like a jerk. How important?

My dad almost died there. He was 3 blocks away.

[Derec mc coy]

2446394 oh... That important. Well. At least he's alive. Sorry for that. I wanted to continue my rage, but I guess it's better to shut my mouth before I get to much hate

[Full-time_Introvert]

Does it mean anything that I was born that year?....

[Full-time_Introvert]

my grandfather had a construction meeting there... luckily it was postponed to the next day.

[ButtonMash]

I salute thee.

[Titanium Dragon]

I salute thee who had family die on that very sad day..

[RainbowJack2000]

I was 10 months old...

[mbpony 512]

I was in High School when it happen. I didn't understood it then like I do now. I'll never forget it either.

[APoeticHeart]

I remember I was in my freshman science class when we heard about it. Then they allowed us to watch it on tv, and I really didn't know what was going on to begin with, but as the day went on, we hardly didn't do any classwork. All we did in each classroom was watch the news and everything.

I boot up my fimfiction account to look for updates. I see a nudge from my subscription from Rated titled "Never forget..." the picture doesn't show, so I click it expecting ponies. Then I look at the calendar and I'm like, "$h!7 !" It's the day I dread the most.

Because when I think 9/11, I think very little of it. Half the time, it's one of those sad stories you see on TV. Then again... But at other times, I'm cringing at the fact that this day is treated as if it was a freaking holiday! I'm not trying to offend anybody, but sometimes I can't help but think America is one giant Ponyville with all these important events. Some events are worth noting, but this is one giant pity party you guys! Move on already!

Okay seriously. If I get called out on this...
No rregrets! Considermegone

[Gildomar]

I guess that I'm the odd one out, since I was 23 at the time.
