I remember that I was on vacation in Spokane during this time. I was sleeping off a fun night at the Spokane fairgrounds. Then my father came in and woke me up telling me that America had been attacked. Being half asleep I didn’t know what to think. I just camped on my aunts couch watching the news unfold. Changing the channel and noticing almost all the TV stations were pointed to the big news networks. I was mostly stunned now that I thought about it. Unlike most people though I didn’t go pointing fingers at what country did it…
It was a very sad day that will always be remembered. People lost their loved ones and most people became more fearful of indifference. It really shocked me one year during another vacation in Spokane when I heard one of my relatives say that we should get rid of all Arabs from the United States to make our country safer… No kidding. Of course they said nothing about certain individuals who like to blow up abortion clinics because people like that aren’t terrorists at all right?
