He saved the White House or Congress.

I think it would have been the White House, the White House, as the house of the Head of State and Government, would have been a more powerful symbol than the Congress building.

here ya go pede..> Tom Burnett, Mark Bingham, Jeremy Glick and Todd Beamer rightfully are forever immortalized for their role in battling a group of hijackers on United Flight 93 -- a flight that ultimately took the lives of everybody on board the plane.

I read the wiki page on flight 93 this am, complete w audio from plane’s voice recorder.

These ppl were absolutely super heroes. God bless them & their families.

I can’t imagine that ppl say there was no plane or plane crash? They have freaking cockpit recorders and voice recorders that captured a lot of what happened on audio. And the cockpit voice recorder was found over 500 ft below the crater surface... which shows just how damn fast the plane went down & why the pieces of jewelry were dangling from trees. What a horrific sight!

I think they are referring to what hit the pentagon maybe being a missile, not flight 93. Such a completely horrible day for America, every bit of it, grief for flight 93 and the towers, 500k fleeing Americans from Manhattan Island being rescued by citizen boats and others, coast guard, tug boats, just everyone. moved all of the people to safely in 9 hours.

We have videos of 747s flying into towers 1 and 2... and retards here are saying “They never found pieces of a plane.” They think it was GWB firing missiles to start and oil war.

7
BestTimeToBAlive 7 points ago +8 / -1

They barely found pieces of bodies bc everything and everyone was cremated on impact or the fires after.

I used to be someone who snarkily thought it was “all too convenient”. I have totally changed my mind.

Those planes ripped through the buildings w such speed & ferociousness, hollowing our entire floors at once.

The buildings toppled not just bc of fire but really bc they were cut across their midsection. Of course they would fall! It’s like Jenga.

And if you read or listen to eye witness accounts, they talk about walking over body parts outside b4 the towers fell.

Ppl don’t get it. Islamic terrorists knocked out the two front teeth of our nation’s financial district. No conspiracy. Just pure evil.

(I do think Saudi Arabia had a ton to do w it all tho)

Then why does the cockpit voice recorder have Jarrah (the terrorist pilot) screaming “No! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me!” ???

And then saying to his cohort in Muslim “is it time? Should we do this?” before the plane smashed to earth at a 40° angle?

Or were the voice recordings faked too? 🙄

I couldn't do that; not that I wouldn't have liked to "give it to" that hijacker, I just wasn't there. A frickin boxcutter?!? What were they going to do with that, lol.

What I did do was perform for the local VFW that weekend, did "Let's Roll"

And the women; I remember one of the flight attendants (Sandy Bradshaw) telling her husband she was preparing pitchers of boiling water to throw at the hijackers during the counterattack. Her last words to her husband were: “Everyone’s running to first class. I’ve got to go. Bye.”

Worked at the same software company that I did. I met him when I travelled in for an important client meeting and found that somehow he and I had inexplicably been able to book the same conference room and it was the only one left. We went back and forth with each other, both demanding rights to the conference room. Within a couple of minutes we both cooled off and the next thing you know we were both trying to figure out a plan B, to give the other the conference room. I liked him right away!

Not new info. He knew he was going to die. Asked her to pray with him, and recite the Lord's prayer with him. She withheld the info about WTC, wanting him to have hope. He gave her a simple message for his pregnant wife and kids, which she relayed.

The fact the woman on the phone is black didn't matter, and it wouldn't today except for all the race baiting bs

Once they were there their tactical choices were okay. But why did Beamer and the others feel a need to be on that plane? Was that their plane? Did they work there? Clearly they were just looking for trouble.

I was 21 when this happened and I realized I wasn't a real man until I had the balls to fight like he did.

I realized being a "man" means nothing if you can't or won't stand up for yourself. Changed my whole way of thinking.
