Of those who died on September 11, 2001 during the terrorist attacks, all were martyrs, but some were also heroes. The passengers of United Airlines Flight 93 were not helpless victims. They stood up for themselves and for others, and while they were not able to save their own lives, they diverted the plane from its target. Due to their bravery, no one on the ground was hurt, though everyone in the plane was killed. |

Yes, and what ever happened to the armed pilot training program? It needs to be restored. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
