anyway i’m glad the guy did it at Citi Field.
i’m a lifelong Mets fan but i hope the Mets regret letting him walk forever
the first year that 9/11 wasn’t politicized?
one of the biggest news story surrounding the 9/11 anniversary this year were demands that the Muslim mayor of NYC not attend the memorial
9/11 was politicized from the moment it happened. It has always been politicized. This was the first year I experienced where it wasn't. I'm not sure *why* that happened, but anyone claiming the tenor of the anniversary was "politicization" is full of it. It was the opposite.
i'm tired of the rewriting of history that Americans all united and sang kumbaya post 9/11
i remember the bloodlust, the thirst for revenge against those with nothing to do with it. i remember Balbir Singh Sodhi, a Sikh man murdered on 9/15 in Arizona because of how he looked
9/11 mourners criticized NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s presence at Friday’s Ground Zero remembrance.
Walter Matuza, whose father was killed on 9/11, said: “He probably should have skipped it.”
Another mourner called Mamdani’s appearance “disrespectful” and “very offensive.”
