I think I know now why WAR IS !!!
If we .... in such a "small" community are'nt able to discuss some matters in a decend way .... how can we EVER be able to get over our differences?
The intolerence in this thread is really getting out of hand!

Hey, if folks don't like the cheesy media coverage, just turn off the TV/Radio/Browser ffs. No need to get all shitty about it... the media is doing what it is supposed to do - make money. Enough folks buy into it and like it, so the stuff keeps coming out. i guess you could refer to the law of demand, utility, and all that jazz.
Basically, i don't really see a need to get all shitty about it either way.

Because I should be able to sit on my couch with a bottle of Boone's Strawberry & some black tar heroin and watch Clifford the Big Red Dog without some A-hole telling me when I need to be quiet and remember shit.

Clifford is on TV? Excellent! What about Lyle the Crocodile?

Rest assured that it is not, perhaps English not being your first language is impeding your understanding of proceedings. It'd be for the best if you just left the thread alone now, it's grown beyond what you intended and to call to mind a comment Shug once made about someone trying to regain control of a thread, the original poster only has a marginal influence over the direction of a thread once it's out there. Just leave it alone.

I think what Scots said is the money shot right there. (heh heh...) Thanks for giving birth to this thread, but it's got a life of its own.

What? You've just spent the rest of the thread saying the opposite.
No, I didn't. I had responded to BEAR's offensive post. Had he just said he was tired of haveing it shoved down his throat I wouldn't have even bothered to reply. But no he had to tell us all to get over it, it wasn't important, and we're all just giving blow jobs to firemen. Gosh, how could I possibly find that offensive?

The whole issue people have with the media's dealing of 9/11 is that it is shoved down our throats as THE DARKEST DAY EVA EVA, when in reality it is now just being used as part of the US propaganda machine. The fact that bleeding hearts sob and whine over it just makes it more sickening, and the perpetuation of such behaviour is not to be ignored.
And I don't agree with the way some of the media do shove it down people's throat. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop caring about what happend or feeling for those who suffered or defending our (those who feel the same) right to do so. I'm not willing to let overhype by the media turn me callus and unfeeling.

No one is saying it wasn't a terrible day.
BEAR certainly seemed to.

I was in Taiwan and saw the 2nd plane hit live on TV and then everything after. So what? There is no way my experience of the day touches that of those TTLG members that were in NY at the time. I think we lost a member in one of the towers too.
When did I say my experience touches that of those who were there. I believe I said the opposite or are you even bothering to read what I've posted?

I also know that there is no way that you should ordinarily be affected by the events in the way you describe. That you admit that it is your depression that would drive you to suicide is evidence of insight into the fact that your condition likely skews your view on the whole thing, sad event that it is.
And you got your degree in psychology from where again? This is an area no one without the proper credentials should even consider entering.

That's a cheap shot and you know it.

And now you're getting uppity over comments not even directed at you.
