I'll be wondering "Will this be the death of me?"

So I'm pretty much bumming myself out for the long weekend, watching videos of 9/11.
Can you believe that three people would actually have no care in the world to destroy thousands of lives, just for the fun of it, or to just get what they want? Is violence the solution for freedom?
In some videos, you would see pictures of people actually JUMPING off the buildings, a quicker way to end their lives, knowing that they would have died slower if they stayed and waited.
Was it an impulse jump, just like how people change their minds in every little thing? Viewers from their apartments just watch in horror as they see people jumping from the tallest building.
Devastating calls to 911 are made, pleading for last chances. What happens at the end of the receiver? What would you do if you knew that it was your last day? I salute the firemen who came in that building to save lives, without knowing if they'll come out or not.

We shouldn't be talking about the Video Awards, Taylor Swift or fighting over who gets to use the internet. There should also be a time where we can all shut up for a moment and just think of the people who lost loved ones, the people who don't even deserve to die.

No opinion or thought is stupid, I'd love to hear (or read!) what you've got to say.
