[Meyer Lansky]

I was in 7th grade and I decided, along with a group of friends, that we were going to cut school that day and head to Manhattan. We had planned to make it back for football practice after school. So we hopped on the train at a ripe 7:30 in the morning, giving us plenty of time to frolic and look for girls and cause trouble and the sort. While on the train, we were attempting to figure out what we would do first. I had about $75 on me that day, so I suggested we swing by the Virgin outlet downtown so I could pick up Jay-Z's The Blueprint and Bob Dylan's Love & Theft albums.

We get off the train and are in the store at around 8:15 and begin to browse and clown around. I remember I was two people away from the register when I spotted nearly everyone outside just... running. As if on cue, what must have been the manager of the store got on the P.A. system and announced that the north tower of the WTC had been struck by a plane. I couldn't tell if it was a joke or not but from everyone's reaction, I figured it had to be true but I was still in utter disbelief.

After we heard, my friends and I decided we were going to get out of there. We were trying to get towards the train, which was in the opposite direction of which everyone was heading, so it was almost like we were heading upstream and made it take much longer than what seemed was necessary to reach the train station. Only to find out that the entire subway system in Manhattan had been shut down. That's when it really hit me that something serious was going down.

That's when we decided we needed to follow everyone else and just get the hell out of the city. Nobody knew what was truly going on. How and why did a plane just fly into the WTC? Is there going to be another one? Where is it going to hit? People were hysterical, some already realizing that they had lost loved ones... Going with the flow of people had proved to be much quicker evident by how quickly we had reached the Brooklyn Bridge, which was serving as one of the gateways out of the city. We were moving along the bridge when we hear a plane whizzing by and head straight towards the South Tower - and right into it.

Shock. Panic. How do I believe my eyes because there is no way in hell that just happened right in front of my face. Nobody is moving. Police get on the mega horn and inform us that the area below the South Tower is undergoing a mass evacuation because pieces of the plane and building had fell to the ground so were now to proceed out of the city in double file. In the nearly 3 hours that we're on the bridge trying to get out with hundreds of thousands of other New Yorkers, all the while watching both towers collapse and a cloud of smoke sweep through the city. This shit scarred me for a long, long time...

Regardless of who was responsible the most important thing is to honor and remember those who died. tons of totally innocent people whose lives were fucked over by some dumb shits who feel like their ideas and plans are actually important.

Live and let live, people.

[Samus Aran]

I was in 7th grade. It was pretty crazy, not to mention a bit scary considering nobody knew what else was going to be attacked.

[ME##]

I was in forth grade and my school decided not to tell us what actually happened so it was a pretty normal day until I got home and turned on the TV, can't say I was really scared though.

The Pentagon and Pennsylvanian hits have been eradicated from history

[The spy who loves you]

I was in 2nd grade and had know general understanding or knowledge of what the fuck happened, so I wasn't really scared.

Nobody cares about some field in Pennsylvania, and the damage to the Pentagon was minimal, but I'm pretty sure plenty of people remember it. I know I do.

Uh, they might care about the people on those planes, but I don't know, that's just me.
