Default Flags at Half Staff

When you're driving down the road today and see the American Flag flying at Half-Staff, it is not to honor the 2996 Americans and the 343 members of FDNY who died, 24 years ago today.

Try to think about that, without being blinded by idealogical leanings.

How soon we forget.

You are so wrong. Today is for and always will be for remembrance.
