I just happened to come across these posts. Thank you for yours. I think most Americans want to find a way to heal from this. Revenge is a first reaction, but there is so much more to it. When I see people putting down Americans right now it breaks my heart even more. I am amazed and proud of my country, I have never witnessed patriotism like this. I have never seen so many people crying and singing together. I have never seen so many American flags. The fact is that there is no reason for this. There is no "deserving" of the kind of destruction we had Tuesday. No reason for it at all. I think it has made America stronger because we must now respect our leaders and not take our rights and freedoms for granted. I will never apologize for taking those things for granted, though. I wish everyone in the world could, but I guess that would be spreading my "western" influence.
