[QUOTE="Maraxle, post: 363260, member: 5538"] My thoughts probably won't be very popular, so if you're easily offended, maybe you should skip my post. --- I remember being angry. Angry at the evil people who could commit such an act. Angry at the US government, whose foreign policy, in my opinion, prompted these attacks. I wanted to be Canadian very badly, as they are so much less hated worldwide. I also remember wishing that we would become isolationists. Close the borders and expire the visas. We have the resources to continue to live well, right? I also remember that it reaffirmed my strong dislike of flying. I have never liked setting foot on an airplane, and now I never will. When I had to fly just two weeks later, made an effort to sit near the front so that I would be the last line of defense before the cockpit. Nobody was getting past me without a fight. I was distrustful at that point. I remember my frustration when I was searched at each and every security checkpoint. I was "randomly" selected on each and every flight because I have dark hair and dark eyes. I viewed each time they searched me as a waste, as they could have been searching someone who might actually want to cause harm. Now, just over a year later, my anger has softened a bit. However, I still dislike our foreign policy and admittedly still hate those who could commit such vile acts. I still wouldn't mind being Canadian. I still would love to see our borders more restricted, though not completely closed. And I still hate flying. [/QUOTE]
