pookie23 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 The annual NYPD vs. FDNY football game later this spring. Please say those exact same dumb-ass comments to them...I'll be sitting on the side while they use you as their new tackling dummy, cause the only thing you have "up there" is foam and rocks for brains.Where does the line start to kick your ass?

laurie619 Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 sorry guys I had to post that I just read it and I wanted toshare it with all of you... This thread pissed me off when I read it also and it maybe me question my faith in God right after the terrorist attack on America. "where was my God?" I was so hurt, as all Americans were, so I tried not to react defensively believe I have the answer. I know where my God was the morning of September 11, 2001! I think he was He very busy. First of all, he was busy trying to create obstacles for employees at the World Trade Center. After all only around 20,000 were at the towers when the first jet hit. Since the buildings hold over 50,000 workers, this was a miracle in itself. How many of the people who were employed at the WTC told the media that they were late for work or they had traffic delays. In my mind He was holding up 2-110 story buildings so that 2/3 (or so) of the the workers could get out. I was so amazed that the top of the towers didn't topple when the jets impacted. Although this is without a doubt the worst thing I have seen in my life, I can see God's miracles in every bit of it. I keep thinking and praying every chance I have for everyone who lost a loved one. I can't imagine going through such a difficult time and not believing in God. Life would be hopeless.

DO NOT DARE TO SAY YOU HAVE RESPECT FOR FDNY, YOU HAVE NONE.As far as your moronic questions,1. If they couldn't extinguish it they could at least contain it and get people out.2. Are you kidding? EVERY BUILDING ON FIRE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO COLLAPSE. That question is beyond nonsensical.3. They helped people to exits that could be used. Yes, they were certainly needed to help guide people and I'm sure that more than a few survivors owe their lives to the direction of the FDNYYou're utter disrespect and unappreciative comments are appalling.Here's a question for you...if someone happened to throw a match on your bed while you sleep...should they then show this post to your local firefighters?

mssabina Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 it saddens me that someone could be so ignorant as to say such a thing... you obviously have no compassion or appreciation for what the FDNY did and the risks they took. tell me, what would you have done? there was enough chaos and confusion and SHOCK to prevent people from thinking clearly and that lasted for the most part of the week after 9/11, don't you think that they TRIED their best to what they could? a plane crashing into a 100 story+ tower is not an everyday occurance, hence the panic and disorganization. i'm proud and thankful that there were people brave enough to help out that day because god knows i would be in hysterics. you are a moron. go climb back under your rock and STAY THERE.

airatomic Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Originally posted by hotchickie5 u have got to be the most unappreciative person. How dare u say stupid shit like this about FDNY. They tried to do wut they were trained to do and wut they thought would be best. They had no idea the damage was bad enough to make the towers fall. They followed their instincts. FDNY deserves respect and praise for wut they did not ridicule. They are the only people that have the balls to do wut they do and do it everyday. Obviously u didn't experience the pain of not knowing whether or not a loved one was okay. U weren't sitting next to the phone waiting for the fire department to call and say i'm sorry but...he didn't make it. Well i did and to hear someone like u talk like this is very disappointing. These men disregarded their own lives to try and save others. Their acts on 9-11 just shows how brave they really are. When everyone was runnin out they were runnin in. They lost their brothers and yet they still go to work everyday and do wut they love because it is in their blood. The members of FDNY are heroes. There is no denying that. robocock, listen to this girl and dont post stupid shit like that again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotchickie5 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 laurie619 that rest in peace post was awesome. and what u said about where ur God was, is true. Mine was there too. Everything in this world happens for a reason. Although it may be hard to understand and justify the reasons to such a horrible tragedy...they are there. Our world, country, state, and cities have unified and become stronger. We pulled together and are working together to defeat an evil that no one can understand. Forever in our mindsForever in our hearts FDNY NYPD and all those lostAlways remember never forgetWhat's there is thereWhat's gone is lostBut Forever in our hearts nothing will ever be lost.Rest in Peace my lost brothers and sisters FDNY9/11/2001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a time of chaos there are no drills. There are no simulations, all you know is that you are one man who has to throw his life on the line and run inside of a burning building to save your fellow Americans. That is what you need to do, it is your job, it is your code, it is your patriotism, it is your right. Those who weren't there couldn't possibly imagine what was going on. The Camera filming cannot show you everything from every angle. Your just a silly person for making this post... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trancerxn112 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 omg its almost pointless to post on this subject again but you really are a horrible human being... you have no sanctity of human life... in those few moments thousands of people were all at once silenced... Firemen risked their lives and had it taken from them but they raced in there to save whoever they could and it was a very valiant effort... even more appaling then your disregard for the bravery in the face of an unprecedented even is ur complete ignorance... instead of appologizing you deem it necessary to continue to be a complete asshole... i really think thats a horrible thing to do and then to hide behind the anmenity of a public forum... shame on you... you make me ashamed to call myself an american!

klubkat Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 I came down from the 55th Floor and in the back of my mind I was kinda thinking the same thing about the firemen going up there. Maybe not as harshly as robocock said but kinda the same point. There were times when you were stopped in the stairwell for minutes not even moving. The smoke was getting kinda thick and some people had trouble breathing. We had to move over for alot of firemen coming up the stairs and it was very hard to look at their faces. There was no announcement to go back to work, there were no fire alarms going off, there was no announcement on what to do. At least in Tower 1 there wasn't. From my understanding the alarm went off in Tower 2 when Tower 1 was hit. Thats why you hear these stories about the announcement to go back to work. The PA told them that in Tower 2 since they really didn't think there would be another plane comming. The PA was working on that fire alarm system for the longest time. I guess I didn't really work the way they wanted it to since the alarm went off in the wrong building. Basically if you were up there, it was a feeling that you were on your own. If you remember a few months before this happened there was a fire on a subway platform that filled the mall up with smoke. They made an announcement in every WTC building and told us what was going on. This time there was nothing. Not even a simple fire alarm going off. I didn't hear an alarm until I got to about the 10th Floor. It's easy to say after everything is over "Why did they even go up there?" But at the time - absolutly no one knew what to do. So robocock - I somewhat understand what you are saying but you are saying it very rudely. You are showing no respect for people who lost their lives.

klubkat Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Hey - all I'm tryin to say is that when everything was over it was easy for alot of people to wonder why they even had an order to go up. I honestly don't know how they even did it. You think I don't know what they did that day. You know how many of those dead firemen I looked right in face and said to myself "That could have been me up there they are trying to save". No one would even think this if the towers didn't collapse. But no one knew. That's the bottom line. No One Knew. Robocock could have been completly sincere in asking those questions. 1. Where would the supply of water come from if you are going 80 stories up?2. Did the FDNY consider the towers collapsing?3. Did they worry about traffic on the stairwell?What is wrong with asking questions like this from a person who knows shit about what really happened and know shit about what a firefighter really does. This person knows neither of these and to top it off he's an asshole in the way he came across. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robocock Posted March 12 Author Report Share Posted March 12 i know what i wrote would provoke drama but i had a point. my neighborhood came down from one of the towers and he complained about the firemen taking up space. no offense intended.Originally posted by klubkat I came down from the 55th Floor and in the back of my mind I was kinda thinking the same thing about the firemen going up there.
