Sitting in Ecology class, a fellow student beame bored with class and turned the TV on. -Though it would have most likely been a reason to get yelled at, all the room's attention was focused on what was being seen.

NMAH Story: Flag Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th? Have your feelings about the American flag changed as a result of September 11th? Yes I did. Before the attacks, the flag was merely a symbol for our country. -Actually, a few weeks after the attacks, I grew mad with the sudden growth of patriotism. -Everyone in this country should have been flying flags prior to the attacks. -It angered me that the unity and patriotic feelings soared when the incident happened. -I understand people may have felt it was the right thing to do, but it just seemed too cheap to be sincere. It's most likely wrong of me to think that, but at least it brought around unity and love. - A year later, I think the flag no longer only represents our country, but now shows the everyone's love.
