Christine Lee Hanson

 Christine Lee Hanson would be 25 now, graduated from college, and starting her adult life.

 Christine was two years old. Her parents were taking her to Disneyland. They lived in Groton, Massachusetts and were on Flight 175 on a beautiful September morning twenty-three years ago today. She became the youngest person to die in the terror attack of September 11th, 2001.


At the end, her father was on the phone with his father. When the phone went silent, Christine's grandfather hung up. They had the TV on and watched the plane strike the tower at the same time. His wife says he was never the same.

Martin Luther King once said in a speech, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."

I hope that this is true.

Remember.

  1. c'mon man, it was just moslems doing islam!!

    Islam is a death cult, not a religion. Religions do not force you to join or pay a tax, and they don't kill you if you change to another religion.

  4. What was amazing to me on the anniversary was how little notice was given to the day.

  5. Americans died, because they were murdered. Few remember the day because there's been so much bullshit since that day. But - Americans died. Americans going about the business of being Americans. And killed for it.
    All of the perpetrators weren't killed. And I bet "our" .gov knows things that they aren't telling us - their employers - and that makes them complicit.
    God forgive me; but I want their blood. Americans died
    Please, brothers and sisters here; 🙏 do not forget, and don't let them get away with it. Motherfuckers need to pay.
