I see your point completely Jason, and agree.

I prefer to celebrate triumph than mourn loss, and in these sort of situations, as it was earlier said, the aim of the terrorists was to terrorize, and by keeping it in the public mind year on year means they are inadvertantly accomplishing part of their goal.

Everyone is, however, entitled to deal with whatever however they please (within reason of course).

aren't there some cultures that have holidays where they celebrate a day of atrocity? not joking but i think i remember seeing one where people punch the shit out of each other and then party into the night to remember a day where many of their own were killed fighting off "the white man"

quote:

...known from a videotape the two made when they met in March... in Dresdens home, Dresden amputated Gabriels penis and Dresden and Gabriel ate the penis together...Gabriel had insisted that Dresden bite his penis off; this did not work.. Dresden used a knife. When that knife turned out to be too blunt, Dresden used a sharper knife to slice the penis off. Gabriel apparently tried to eat his share of his own penis..but could not because it was too..."chewy". Dresden then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic.
