I was 20 almost 21. I remember people pressuring me to join the military. I didn't because I thought that stuff like that would never stop simply by invading another country, especially Afghanistan. I thought that it would just keep going on for years.

Be home from school, playing Diablo II. Really suck at the game because I'm young as fuck but doesn't matter think I'm the greatest player anyway.

Get really pissed because my friends aren't coming online, we wanted to play together. Someone tells me a plane just rushed into the WTC. Wtf is the WTC. Those two large buildings in New York. Ah, from the pictures. Think they mean some small plane like a cessna, nope it's a big one. Turn in TV just in time to see the second one smash into the tower. Oh wow.

Turks and other mudslimes celebrate the next few days, some don't show up to school others bring food and are jubilant. Okay.

I was sleeping (some days off from army), my sis woke me up and told me to watch TV, I called my unit whether I should report in as we had a briefing some days before about an incoming attack, didn't have to, visted a friend, he was cheerful about Americans finally having got rekt, I had mixed feelings as everybody made excuses for muzzies and didn't support USA (I am half American), muzzies in the streets were handing out free pastries and sweets.

I pretended to be sick so I could skip school. Went to visit my grandma and watched TV on the couch, sipping on tea and eating a soup. Suddenly the TV programme got interrupted and they showed pictures of the first plane crashing into one of the WTC towers. I tried changing the TV channel but pretty much every channel showed the same pictures and that's when I realized it was real. Shouted for my grandma to come over and watch but she didn't care. When the second plane hit the towers and I told her we were both convinced it was a terrorist attack. Can not quite remember my reaction when the towers collapsed.

Yeah, I always think about victims's family, the firefighters, cops, etc.
These people still have nightmares about that day, that's for sure.
There's still people that suffer with PSD.

Those images of people jumping from the windows because they couldn't take the heat and smoke anymore. They've jumped hoping that somehow, a divine intervention would save them. An intervention that never came.

Truly the most horrific, abhorrent event in the western world.
And it's well documented, so people can remember for generations to come, of what humans are capable of.

>>78028268
I was 9, living in California, so it was early in the morning and I was asleep. My mom woke me up and told me the world trade center was hit by an airplane. I had no clue what the world trade center was. In my mind, the biggest building in New York was the Empire State Building. I sat down and watched the news as it was happening, while my mom was getting ready. I saw the second plane hit the building and I ran into my parents room to tell them that the other building was hit. My mom said "No, they're probably just showing a replay" But obviously it wasn't. I kept watching until I had to go to a before school program (kinda like a daycare at school) we had to listen on the radio because they didn't have a TV in there. Everybody, including the counselors, were crowded around the radio listening as they said the buildings fell down. It didn't even make sense to me at the time. That day at school, we didn't even do any work, we just watched the news the entire day, and talked about it for the next few days. That morning was probably the most memorable day of my childhood

Drive a few miles off the turnpike and you see nothing but green. Jersey is split in to three sections. North Jersey is dirty NYC run off. South Jersey is more like PA. And the Jersey Shore is a budget/decent vacation spot for poor new yorkers.

I live in NYC now and make enough money for coke and hookers every weekend. About to buy in PA and start up a gun collection. I'm done being young, about to start being a responsible adult.

10th grade, leaving gym class. People excitedly saying someone flew a plane into the World Trade Center. We laugh, thinking the pilot was an idiot or must have been some kind of malfunction. Go to U.S. History class, teacher puts on television. News shows smoldering building. Second plane hits. Oh fuck.

Teacher starts crying, saying we are all going to be drafted. We laugh and ask if we can go home to get ready for war. Next class, early dismissal.
>>
I was homeschooled, so I was doing my school work on my bed with the tv on, forgot what was on, but it was interupted bt the news and footage of one of the towers burning. I thought the pilot episode of The Lone Gunmen had played out in real life.
When my parents heard what happened they told me that that's what people who eatch the x-files do. Later that year my great grandmother died, I consoled my mom by saying "she's not hurting anymore, she's in a better place", then my grandmother died and my mom said "How does it feel to have someone you love died!? Doesn't feel that great dies it!?". Now with the Orlando shooting I supposed that pergaps the government was involved, she said people like me should be put of terrorist watch lists.
Fuck you government cock suckers.
Knew 9/11 was a false flag from that day one.
>>
>>78028268
I don't think you remember everything very well. Most places didn't close early until after the second plane hit, and that's when most people realized it was an attack. Before the second plane people thought it was an accident.
>>
>>78028268
>Where were you when it happened?
I was at home trying to watch my cartoons
>>
I was about to walk to the bus stop and noticed some explosion on tv. Someone mentioned "they're blowing up Washington." I wondered why the government would destroy it's own capital.
Eventually I figured out from the other kids what had taken place. It was late into the morning before there was an announcement over the PA. I didn't learn who did it or why until later, which I wanted to know more then anything.

Because it never is? It's why I found it so weird when people claimed Trump was lying when he talked about seeing them celebrating. They sure as hell did in Europe.

Heck, about 35% of them around here outright agree with ISIS, 50% of the Turks the most liberal group want frigging Shariah. The Press never mentions it or plays victim blaming i.e someone provoked them and they are victims who see their abuser getting their just dessert from their point of view.

My family just moved, it was to be my first day of school in the new city.

I remember seeing it on the TV before my mom took me out to my first day, but since she took my sister first, when we got to my school it was too late. I was pretty happy I didn't have to go. Didn't really understand the gravity of it all. I just thought it was a fire or something.

I went to school the next day and we did nothing other than introduce me and watch 9/11 all day

Well around here nobody cared, there were a lot "fewer" of them still and we could still pretend they aren't an issue by moving them to lower school forms and their own parts of the city.

It's interesting though, so many people from the EU have seen it themselves, which means many of the leftists have also and they simply refuse to acknowledge it.

I was a softmore in high school at the time. I was feeling kind of sick that day so I wound up staying home.
I was laying on the couch and had just got done watching a bit of the movie Twister (I used to love that movie) and decided to watch the weather channel for a bit. At the time we had that old set up where you had to tune your tv to channel 3 in order to watch your videyas (Didn't see a dvd player till like 2003 or 2004.) So that meant that I was on a news station. I just got done shutting the VCR off and they JUST cut in with the news of the first tower on fire.

So I wound up getting the chance to watch 9/11 from the very beginning.
>>
Basically everybody in my school wanted Iraq to win and thought they would win.
>>
I was like, middle of 9th grade, I think.

Second period of the day, and the teacher turned on the TV in time for the news to show the second plane hit. People started crying.

I joined the military as soon as I graduated as a result, but I never shot anyone (corpsman).
