No one who has died [link|http://www.snopes.com/rumors/beamer.htm|fighting evil] has died in vain.
Now those thousands killed three years ago today in those towers... that's something to decry. Agreed?
Also, the untold thousands slaughtered by Saddam. Some of them died fighting, the rest just died.
Been facing death by murder since grade school, my good man. Seen the victims with my own eyes. And that's why I don't care to see these 1000 heros used in some cheap rhetorical ploy against all that they died for. Let turds such as Todd and Peter do their worst to rob their sacrifices of meaning. They won't succeed. And I'll personally see to it they never live it down.
