It was made known to me of the incedent on 9/11 from my HOA teacher Mrs. Berzins. I wasn't quite sure how things were going to happen that day, and all of my friends and I were debating what wraith the US would retaliate with on whoever did that. It's still hard to picture everything that happened. . . But the thing is that it hardly effected me personaly because noone I know was really effected by it, but it did hit me like it hit the nation. I feel that retaliation is necessary, but haste will be our enemy in bombing efforts, for I'm a Catholic and I feel that no innocent's should be hit, however I do trust the military forces we have to hit the correct targets.
God Bless America-- I send my prayers and condolences to any who lost a love one on 9/11,
