ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, MY MOTHER AND I WERE ON HER BOAT AT MONACAN PARK. IT WAS WARM AND WAS A BEATUIFUL DAY, I WANTED TO LISTEN TO THE RADIO, SO I TURNED THE RADIO ON AND ALL YOU HEARD ON THE RADIO WAS "WE HAD BEEN ATTACKED" , "PLANES HIT THE PENTAGON". IT WAS TERRRIBLE!!!
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. MY MOTHER IS A CHRISTIAN AND SHE STARTED TELLING ME THAT THE WORLD WAS COMING TO AN END.
I WAS SCARED I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK.
BY THE TIME WE GOT HOME OF COURSE THE NEW'S HAD BEEN SPREAD ALL OVER THE RADIO AND TELEVISION. I BLAME THE GOVERNMENT , THEY KNEW WE WAS GETTING ATTACKED, AND NEVER DID ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE AMERICA, OUR GOVERNMENT IS CRICKED. THEY DIDN'T MAKE SURE OUR PEOPLE WAS SAFE WHEN THEY KNEW AN ATTACK WAS COMING.
