...no, the joke is completely on you evidently.

...if you seriously don't believe this country was more united in 2001 after 9/11 as compared to now, you are further gone than I thought.

Not right before 9/11.

If 9/11 happened today, it would be the same thing everyone would fake patriotism and togetherness and whatever. America would be glad Trump is a strong president

...wow...just wow, evidently you totally disregarded the title of the thread..."just before 9/11" was not the subject.

...and according to you, "Trump is a strong president"?......not sure what's more disturbing, you saying that or you actually believing that.

Well I can tell you, from my perspective, and from anyone that I know, talked to, hung out with, fucked, or anything at that time in history that you're wrong. In the Pacific Northwest, the bastion of supposed LibTard Cuck Communism? We were unified. It was overwhelming. My heart was full for America and so was everyone else's. We all would have fought anyone that tried to fuck with our Country, period. Two days after the attack, my friends and I met and decided, on a whim, because of our unity and patriotism, to take our gigantic American Flag out to the 4 way intersection down the street. We waved that fucking flag and yelled and called for patriotism and all we got were honks, horns, people yelling from their cars in support of what we were doing and it lasted until W went and invaded a country that had absolutely nothing to do with the attacks on our great country. You continue to show how clueless you are.

If it happened today, we would be the same. The country was divided in 2001 as it was today. And after was a shitstorm as well. Nothing changed.

The patriotism exhibited was nothing more than a need to seek comfort after a personally traumatic and shocking event. It was temporary, as before and after the country was deeply divided, as it is now.

Exactly the same.

Nothing changed other than a need to cope with the shock and that manifested as patriotism. As time went by, we settled into normalcy, which is two party conflict.

It's obvious that Bush didn't see through his following actions and the wars it created. Trump? Yikes. Talk about catastrophe.

I don't think everyone would fake patriotism and unite in the same way... It wouldn't be as unprecedented if it happened again, sadly.

It took you this long to notice? We've ALL been yelling at you for years now. Else, we'd be exercising our Second Amendment rights on each other. Yep, it let's us hang on to what little sanity each of us has left. In my case, it's down to zero.

I warn you, I use to work for the Post Office.

And what happened after? Unity?
Click to expand...
Yep, unity after that vicious attack. The kind of unity displayed by the passengers on United Flight 93 and by the courageous firemen who died in the World Trade Center, by the mayor, Rudy Guiliani, of New York by everyone who wore pins and patches of the American Flag. We had two that we flew from our car windows, a lot of people flew those flags from their car windows, you could feel it in the discussions everywhere you turned.

Well, you might not remember the unity but I clearly remember.
