Nmah story flag

Yes, I did... On my house, my mailbox, and my car. I feel such a tradgedy should not be the only reason people display the flag or the reason why people all of a sudden turn patriotic... We have freedom that only some people dream of, and should proudly fly it always......

Nmah story story

I was online chatting with some friends in a Police and Fire chat room, when someone came on and the words... "Everyone go to your TV or Radio, the World Trade Center has been hit by a plane!!!!" I went to my tv and was watching the footage from the first tower, when all of a sudden the second tower was struck... I remember thinking, "Dear God, what in the world is happening?"
