9/11 was a terrible day. I only wish we had been a better nation.
Instead of creating actual unity and just dealing with the perpetrators, we let a self-serving President start a second war that had nothing to do with that day. He destroyed a country that was not responsible and left another even worse chaos in its wake.
I mourn 9/11, both for the victims that day and the destruction the terrorists wrought and also for the innocents who were dragged into a war we shouldn't have started in Iraq.
@sfleetucker I have never put a flag on my car. The month after the event it seemed like every car had one. We had a Sikh Indian murdered in a case of mistaken terrorism.
Continuing the theme of things I'm ashamed of...
On that day and for years after, I supported Bush and the WOT. I supported reluctantly the War on Iraq.
I've come since to repent again this mistake so others can identify.
I was manipulated by my anger by the GOP, and that will never happen again.

I'm glad you've thought it through and have learned.
My biological father is English and German but has dark eyes and almost black hair. He got assaulted in Texas simply because he had a bushy black mustache. Bigotry is awful.
