Boston

There's nothing funny

Hey Boston Joker:

I lived through 9/11.  I lived through a city that for nearly a month was like a funeral, where there was nothing to smile about, nothing funny about anything.  I lived through wondering if we would ever smile again.  I lived through wondering if any of my friends had died, and which of my friends knew people who did.  I lived through watching a seasoned newspaper photographer friend break down and cry every time he thought of what happened that day, as he watched what happened downtown.  I can assure you, there is nothing funny about it, and nothing funny about people whose only chance at life meant exiting a skyscraper from the 90th floor.

You are the best, what a nice gesture to offer. Not only do you run a first class service but remembering and honoring our fallen heroes is something we should never forget and how nice that you have done so. Jill's girls are the greatest don't miss out boys

when people decide to make fun of the fact that this country was attacked and that thousands of innocent citizens lost their lives because of it.

I don't find much humor in a national tragedy - or have the majority of this country forgotten already the act itself and the implications of the attack.

Jill's offer to those that serve is nice way to say "Thank You" to all those who's vocation could lead them completely unknowingly into harm's way on any given day. They understand the implications of their profession and we take it for granted.

Wrong thread, wrong time, wrong words.
There are times when humor is not called for.

I lost two clients. One was on the phone with me as the plane hit.  Both lost.

concern for the ones that lost their lives during this attack or their families!! At the same time I would really doubt if you have EVER even thought about the implications of the attack and what it means (yes, I meant for this to be in the present, the threat is FAR from over) for every freedom loving and RESPECTING person.

Perhaps if you had ever served your country during a world wide war and seen what it is to live in a country that doesn't ALLOW you any of the freedoms you so readily take for granted and expect then perhaps your tune would change.

I spent too many years involved with situations that made me look forward to the day I was able to get on my knees and kiss United States soil. Yes, it's a touchy subject with me and should be with EVERY "American".

By the way, just FYI, fire personnel (and police) were the most seriously hit, but doctors, therapists, journalists, and average citizens helped, some for months afterwards, and were in many cases as affected by trauma, bad air, etc., just as fire and police were.

Maybe its just me, but the "discount" to celebrate 9/11 for service personnel just seems off; I'm quite sure that it's not what fire or police are thinking about, when they think about 9/11.
