I'm sorry to have to find myself having to comment on this topic because the last thing I think this forum is about is national politics. In my mind this isn't the place for it. If I wanted to discuss politics and world events, I know there are plenty of places throughout the Internet where they would happily indulge me. If you want to submit and discuss an image or a model of the ship, that's one thing. To discuss the politics, that's entirely another. Just realize that your insensitivity to the feelings of others who may not agree with your ideologies has been noted. I for one was there that day. I felt the heat of the fireball intensely upon my face and the earth shake below my feet. I saw innocent people jumping, arms and legs flailing as they fell to their certain deaths. I lost 26 co-workers, all good family people. I watched with my own eyes, the north Tower crumble. Not knowing at the time I had lost a 49-year-old cousin in it, a widow with 3 children there, as I walked through the ashes of the south Tower which had already fell. Still, to this day, I cannot shake off those memories that will haunt me for the rest of my life. Dont talk to me about innocent people and what you think is right and whats wrong! I'm not interested in what you think from the sheltered safety of your home. Ill say no more about this topic. You want to discuss art, modeling, Bryce fine, but not your ideologies or your politics, they dont interest me.
