Reaction to 9/11 (and our video)

I hope everyone has found the video this week on the events of September 11, 2001, informative. I also hope that you agree that it is important that events such as this are remembered long after they occurred.

There are a couple of questions that I want you to comment on here:

  1. What are some of the ways in which life in the United States have changed since September 11, 2007?
  2. How will 9/11 be remembered by kids 50 years from now? Will it remain as important event as it is today? How should it be remembered?

Please comment on anything else (within this topic) that you feel is important to share.

This link will take you to the Wikipedia articles dealing with 9/11. Please feel free to use it, as well as other resources, to learn about the events of 9/11/01. Keep in mind that sources such as Wikipedia are largely formed by personal opinions of the authors. Be careful what you consider facts.

To receive credit for this assignment your comments should be posted by Friday (9/14) morning

I think we have become more proctective about who boards the planes. And kids of all ages will remember what had happened on 9/11 because it took such an impact on the world.

1. I think that life in the united states has changed, because, planes that fly too close to where they are not supposed to be will most likely be shot down.

2. I think that 9/11 will still be important, because it was very sad and very, very dangerous for many, many people. It should be remembered as one of the most important events in your life.

i think that we have started to be more careful about who we are letting get on planes b y checking them and i think that 9/11 will be remember 50 yrs from now cause people who did survive probably will tell their grandkids and because they will probably talk about it on the news

i think that america is more protective now and that people should be careful no matter what! it was really sad about what happened but it made us more aware of the possibilities of being insecure about our surroundings.

1. i think that we need to be careful about about planes and make sure they don't fly off course and if something strange is going on we need to find out whats going on.

2. i think everyone should remember 9/11 because many people were hurt that day and maybe they can prevent things like that in the future.

I think that since 9/11 we became more careful about situations. Back then we were not that watchful for scary, creepy people. The police looked out for us. I think that 9-11 will always be important to the U.S. just like Pearl Harbor that happened over 50 years ago.

i really hope airports keep up this security and nothing like this ever happens again because like everyone in the united states was affected and everyone will remember what happened for the rest of their lives. like jarrett said this will go down in history and everyone will be more aware of what happens.

I think that 9/11 has impacted by giving the United States a wound that will take alot of time to heal. I think we are more careful now with planes and do anything to stop terrorist attacks in any way.

9/11 will be remembered for many years to come as it is a great tragity to the USA.

I agree with about every post on here as I think all of the oppinions of every one in the class are absoultly correct in my eyes.

i think that everyones coment was absolutly correct. i think that we should be more aware of all of the things that might happen to us in the future even if that means another hijacked plane. we should always remember the happenings on that tragic day.

if there is one thing i do remember on that day it was school. i remember that my mom recieved permision to come get most of the kids out of school from our neighborhood!

the movie and the actual happinings on 9/11 really riminded me of my cousin ben in the army in iraq and how he was not able to see is newborn child for 3 months. but it is good to no that he is doing fine and he cant wait to come home
