250+ Firemen

God bless them and their families.

For the life of me, I don't understand why the **** we ran them up the second tower right after the smoke cleared from the fallen first tower. It was evident to every reporter on TV that the next tower would fall. Why would they send them in harms way? I don't understand.

Also, at least 85 cops.

I'm certainly not overlooking them, I just hadn't heard the estimate.

That was REALLY sad watching that fireman talk in the Giuliani press conference about all of his 40 year plus friends in the department, including chiefs, that he lost. I don't know why that effected me more than the other stuff.
