Labelling "free speach" as an abused right goes directly against everything this country stands for.

As long as it's nonviolent, I welcome all peaceful free speech on public property. I may not agree with it, but you have the right to say it.

I could care less about how someone pokes fun at a situation. If you can't laugh or lighten up, then the badguys have really won. BUT, we're seeing Hollywood PROFIT off those events... Now THAT'S fucked up.


But I'd probably laugh if I saw what you're describing h:
I don't agree with you on that.

From your point of view you can say that any movie from any war be it WW2 or Vietnam, or any Cowboy movie where Indians died, or the Titanic, or Apollo 13... ANY of those should not have been made because of loss of life and near or total tragidies.

I think these movies need to be made. And they need to be made without holding anything back. Let the people remember how it felt that day, remind them what their emotions were. Far too many people are forgetting 9/11 and are getting lacadaisical. The 9/11 movie that NEEDS to be made hasnt been yet, and I dont think it ever will.

I doubt it was planned, but I wont write off the idea that maybe someone knew about it and didn't stop it, much akin to the ideas that maybe Pearl Harbor and the Battle of Brittian were "allowed" to happen as well. Who knows? Maybe in 50 years when all the people who's careers that revolve around national secutiy are retired we'll find out for sure what happened...

If I could spell it. Yes. It was the initial major air push of the Luftwaffe over Britain that lasted for several months. RUMOR (and nothing else) suggests that the Enigma code machine was fully cracked at this time, but because the British forces did not want to give away the fact that they had this device, they did not order full-scale evacuations of to-be-bombed areas.

RUMOR, but interesting at that. Makes tactical sense.

Not really. If they had known when and where the bombing raids were taking place they could have taken them down with fighters before they even got to the coast...just like they did after enigma was cracked.
