Thread Name: BS: 20th anniversary of 9-11
Subject: RE: BS: 20th anniversary of 9-11
This is the video that I share with people about 9/11: Boatlift - An Untold Tale of 9/11 Resilience. It shows the best possible kind of reaction and the best of people working together. It doesn't happen often, but in this kind of situation, it's the only response that makes sense.

I didn't intend to turn on the TV, but Jeri's remarks about bagpipes had me switch on MSNBC to see what they're covering now. Condoleeza Rice saying that for a few minutes they were afraid that after the order to shoot down any aircraft that didn't respond correctly, they thought they might have shot down the plane that crashed in Shanksville. That's enough for me. It's one thing to look at the day, but it will quickly bleed into discussion of George W. Bush's inappropriate responses over the rest of his presidency. And how it took Biden 20 years later to bring it to a close.
