I'm a New Yorker, we don't roll over for anyone.
But we don't waste our time, either.
Who am I going to side with? The guys with years of experience and
millions of dollars in technology, that's who.
Don't paint me as a dove, I'm not. And yes, I own several guns.
But if you think some mailman with a .22 was going to prevent this
disaster, you're only fooling yourself. These guys were trained
professionals who were committed enough to die for their cause.
PS - I got email from two of my friends that worked in #7 WTC. They
got out OK, The building was destroyed.
No word about the guys that worked in #1 WTC, we expect the worst,
they should have been on the 107th floor when the plane hit.
Most likely the fire stairs were cut and they were trapped.
