Photography Question

Remembering 9-11


 
 
I just wanted to take the time out to remember those who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001. We Will Never Forget! If Anyone wants to share photos dedicated to 9/11, I thought this would be a great way to see them all! God Bless America and the families of the 9/11 Victims.

  Thanks Kristy. And no matter which party you favor, whether you're an independent, Republican or Democrat, vote for Obama for President to get this country on the road to recovery and out of the war business.

Expressly NO offense meant, but I think this GLOBAL board dedicated to photography is not the appropriate place to express one nation's grief.
To some non-US citizens this feels like a hijack of 'their' neutral forum.

  I will have to disagree with you. I think everyone agrees that terrorism is never the answer. What happened to the United States was a tragedy and for that matter any country it happens to. I wanted to see people's photos dedicated to this day in history, so it does apply to photography. I will also have a dedication to the Tsunami victims. I think anything that result in a large number of lives lost deserves to be honored, no matter what country you are from. A tragedy is a tragedy.

  I don't have a problem with the sentiment, but let's leave politics out of the discussion whether we're talking about who is to blame for 9/11 or who is the best person to lead us in the future. The 3,000+ people who died on September 11 weren't Democrats or Republicans, they were Americans.

The one good thing that came out of that day is that we all grieved as Americans. It's a shame that here we are as a country, divided again.

  I agree! Politics is a sore spot with everyone right now. All I care about is that the People who lost their lives are honored. I shouldn't have replied early it was more out of instinct than anything else. I never meant for this topic to upset or offend anyone. That was not my intend at all. We should come together from all over the world today to remember whats important here, to never forget, the families of the victims deserve that. My sister lives in NYC so this is personal to me. From the looks of it BP will probably delete this thread... And I innocently, just wanted to acknowledge this day in history....

The ONE thing that is irrelevant on this forum is member's nationality!
Please do NOT introduce that divisive factor here!

If you "just wanted to acknowledge this day in history" then please do so on a HISTORY forum! NOT on a PHOTOGRAPHY forum!

"I wanted to see people's photos dedicated to this day in history".

Sorry, I don't buy that. If that were the case you wouldn't have waited until the 5th post to express that desire – ON A PHOTO BOARD.
And, BTW, I have yet to see the first related image appear here.

You are NOT doing this forum and its members a favor by bringing this subject up here.

I am a survivor of the World Trade Center. I was in Building 2 when we were attacked. This image is in memory of my co-worker Bill who did not make it out alive. We were lucky, we only lost one.
