9-11 reality check - How many people die a day of _________ ?
Yes, we all agree it was a very dark day for America, and a sad day for us all. However, lets keep it in perspective and not lose touch with reality. There are many, many other things that also deserve your attention.
About 822 people a day die from obesity. About 24,000 people die a day of world hunger. Almost 16,000 children die a day from hunger Around 1479 people die from cancer a day and 3483 new people are diagnosed with it. Around 4000 people die a day from having a stroke. Globally, around 8500 die a day due to an AIDS related death. Over 100 Iraqi civilians die a day, courtesy of the US military. In the USA, every 12 minutes, one person dies because of a car accident. Every 1 second, someone dies from either murder or suicide. That's 1440 a day. ![]() This list could go on forever. Yet none of these deaths get anywhere near the same amount of press that 9-11 does, if any press at all. ![]() If you have any stats for deaths per day, please share. |

Please don't tell me you are comparing that list with the tragedy of 9-11.

Over 2 GFY Poster's career die each day from posting
yet other figures http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/ar...TICLE_ID=53103 ILLEGAL ALIENS Murder 12 American Citizens EVERY DAY http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/...nce-deaths.htm More than 18,000 adults in the USA die each year because they are uninsured and can't get proper health care But seriously, there is a huge difference and to start comparing numbers like this is unwise. You can try and compare children killed each day by attacks vs. swine flu - doing comparison's totally eliminates the horror that is being the attacks on kids. It's more than just numbers

To trivialize the death of ANYONE for the sake of keeping a supposed grasp on reality is asinine. Intelligent people see the tragedy in any and all of the things you listed, claiming to be no more important than one or the other.
The key difference however? Those lives were lost in an attack against US citizens by a foreign body or organization. Quote:

Just because people die every day of other causes, does not excuse the reason that the people on 9/11/2001 died.

Of course not.... But when you spend trillions chasing something that kills a few thousand and then hardly anything that kills millions you might start to wonder if your priorities are misguided.

the cancer and stroke stats are pretty bad, luckily treatment is on the up and changing lifestyle habits can decrease the risk!

Keeping in touch with reality...
The reality is - almost all these deaths can be prevented...in one way or another. That's the biggest tragedy. Comparing the attention given to deaths on 9/11 to deaths by other causes doesn't serve a purpose that I can see. |

However, since so many of you got your panties in a buch, 9-11 is just ONE DAY where Americans finally get to know what it feels like to be an Iraqi. Iraqi has 9-11 every day, thanks to the United States. ![]() ![]() Quote:
Not only spending trillions of dollars that you don't have, but killing 100s of 1000s of people who had nothing to do with 9-11. What's up with that? Oh yea... OIL is up with that. If the Gov spent 1/2 of the money trying to fight cancer (or any of them), as they did fighting these two useless wars, they just may be able to beat them and save millions of lives around the world. Though, there is more money in cancer treatment so that's not going to happen. Quote:

Just saw the last post of the math on that one. I just copied and pasted the stats, they are off on the per day total number. Probably the same guy who's running Wells Fargo.

In fact, as you even mentioned in the other thread, most people only give a shit about 9/11 on anniversaries of 9/11, while people are donating to fight the kinds of deaths you speak of all the time, and people spout off against wars and protest against wars all the time, etc. People are paying respect to this event on this one fucking day and that's too much for you?

DWB: I posed this question on another forum. Why are you all "praying" today like you give a shit. I posted similar numbers before having read this thread.
Left and right wing alike RIPPED me to shreds (or they thought they did anyway, I personally don't give a fuck) Seems they did a good job getting everyone to band together. And guess what tomorrow no one will give a fuck about 9/11 OR all of the other tragedies you listed. Why? Because people are sheep and only talk about this when others do. If today everyone instead was worried about pink rabbits killing all the brown ones EVERYONE would have an opinion either way. Human beings suck shit and don't give a shit, but then get mad as shit when we question their motives... and shit. ![]() |

You're right. If the US Military only killed innocent civilians once every decade, instead of daily, it would make more attention.
9-11, if not an inside job, was payback for all the shit the US has been doing for years around the world. ![]() |

If the anti-abortion guy was murdered today and it WASN'T on CNN how many people would care? It's a tree in the forest falling thing. The only reason anyone cares is because they have been told to.
As I said on the other forum: "Personally I care more for the 100,000 civilians that we murdered in 3 countries than I do about the 2700 who died to start all that." |

9/11 was awful. But going over it every year isn't helping. I feel that it's time to let people remember in their own way. IE we will all think about it and remember, but not do the memorial and bump the thread every year. I also think that Brits need to let the 7/7 bombings go.
This sounds awful and un-caring - it's not. I walked next to an IRA bomb less than hour before it went off so I know what terrorism can do. That shit me up for a long time. I also lost a friend in a nail bombing that was targetted at a London gay bar. Neither of these are as "big" as 9/11 but the priniciple is the same. By going over it so often, we are spreading fear and letting terroists interfere with out lives. That's wrong. You can't let them win. We have to fight back by remembering, but also by sticking two fingers up and NOT giving their pathetic "cause" a whole day of publicity every year.
