YOU MUST BE JOKING. With those pics, you are way out of line. What does a suicidal jumping person have to do with remembrance? :angry:

And you were IN Jersey. You should know better G. I am shaking right now with anger & sadness.

Kind of morbid - but makes you wonder whether the people photographed jumping from the buildings were subsequently recognized by their relatives from the pictures alone.

Right. The falling guy pic is gone. My bad.

I remember that day too vividly. It seems like yesterday. A beautiful morning. It was the best weather for calling out sick from your job. How quickly it became a nightmare....

Well... it did happen. You always see pictures and videos of the explosions knowing full well that hundreds of people died in the initial impact. Is it suddenly offensive because you're being presented with a reality?

Showing pictures of someone committing suicide has suddenly become acceptable for remembering one of the worst days in history? Sick.

Only if you start to question the reasoning behind why it was posted. I doubt it was posted simply to be sensational.

Sensationalism was not the intent. To me, that image is one of sadness, desperation.

I did not anticipate the reaction, but I do understand it. That's why I deleted the pic.

I think everyone knows how sensitive I am to 9/11 being thru it & working for the NYC Red Cross for months afterwards. But anyhow I saw that pic (&, to be honest, the bldgs falling as well) as sick glorified pics of a truly horrendous day in history. The last pic is on of perseverance, remembrance and hope.

Avoiding the reality of a person choosing to jump to their death from 90 stories up is fckin LAME!

Face it, do you jump or burn? Two choices, which one!

No one avoided reality, Marc, I/we lived thru it. I don't need a pic of a man committing suicide to remind me how desperate that day was.

Extreme psychology. Who can honestly say....

I gotta ask, for my own curiosity - were you in NYC then?
