Most of us on The Coli are between the ages of 21 and 40. We all remember where we were on 9/11. I was in 6th grade(I'm 26). The 2000's didn't culturally start till' after 9/11. 9/11 marked the very beginning of how America would view religion, culture, national security, etc. So many Americans were ignorant about Islam, and they all turned xenophobic overnight. I was just watching a Howard Stern archrival broadcast from 9/11 2001, BOY the word towel head was thrown around freely by callers. And Howard was basically gave the Kanye Shrug, because he felt Americans and New Yorkers specifically had a right to be a little racist. What the media never discusses are the amount of anti-Islamic attacks that occurred in the days after 9/11, some of them including murder. But those incidents were small potatoes because everybody was too pissed to garner any thread of sympathy for those Muslim Victims. That's the same apathy that helps people not care about a drone strike killing innocent people.

No.
its been 14 yrs already, we killed Bin Laden, fukked up Iraq, Afghanistan and rebuilt the tower.
Can you imagine being on the planes or on the twin floors where the impact occured? It is the single worst attack in history. Thousands of innocent lives perished within one hour. Let's not forget the destruction and destabilization of the middle east due to the ongoing war on terror. The last 14 years will be written about extensively in history books.

Why remember any of the shyt? Life is completely meaningless so death is god himself aka the ultimate cosmic expression of mercy and compassion so strong that weak minded people think it is cold and indifferent.
Oh shyt that's who @CinnaSlim look like, Thelma from Good Times, goddamn man.

They also brought up the Tulsa massacre. Legit questions in my eyes...
How the fukk do you nikkas look at an event where a bunch of Muslims indiscriminately killed thousands of Americans of different races INCLUDING blacks (I believe the estimate was over 200 black people who died), and still start on some "b-but what about black people and slavery" shyt?
That shyt is an insult to those black victims and their families.......
Nobody's saying you have to cry with cacs about it....but this "what about slavery"/"They should get over it like they be telling us" whining is just a dumb comparison. Save that shyt for when someone bytches about the Holocaust or something
