Everybody discarded the information thinking it was a small plane flown by some moron. Then, as you know, 20 minutes later another plane struck. At that point, we knew that it was terrorists. I remember feeling the fear, and anger towards those individuals that pulled off that horrific event. I left work early that day, and went for a long drive. Probably, for about 2 hours, I drove around thinking about what the future held. For the first time in history, America was complacent. We thought everyone in the world loved us, and that everyone wanted to partake in our way of life. In a matter of hours, all of that complacency went out the window. I remember feeling like I wanted our government to carpet bomb the entire Middle East for what they did. Now, I know that would have been wrong, but I really felt like that."
