Re: 9/11
I'm thankful for the sacrifices that were made so that 20 years later, I can go out and have a nice Saturday and not have to fear for my life.
A fire department that I work with at my job - who also responded to the Pentagon on 9/11 - posted that we as a nation have lost almost 3500 first responders to medical illnesses suffered from responding to 9/11, which is insane to me. It makes me angry to think about how long they had to fight (shoutout to Jon Stewart for the assist) to get a bill through Congress to have their medical bills covered.
As a nation we're quick to never forget 9/11 but it seems there are plenty of people in a position of authority who have forgotten about the sacrifices still being made to this day by people who responded.
