This is awful. I never thought in my entire life that I would witness something this horrific. I don't have any family or close friends in NYC but just listening to the news this morning driving to work.. I could barely see through my tears. What kind of a person could do this? They are estimating that the death toll from this event will be worse than Pearl Harbor. I was reading in the news that someone called up to the 90th floor of one of the two buildings to try and figure out what was going on... someone answered and said "We're fucking dying!" Another woman from one of the news shows was actually in one of the two buildings and made it out like 10 minutes before it collapsed. I pray I never have to witness anything close to what she witnessed as she walked out of that building. I was just in New York City in October. It is so unreal. I can't believe this is really happening. I am sending out prayers for every person involved and their families. This is definitely one of the worst attacks I think anyone could have made on the U.S. I don't know how whoever did it will justify their actions.... but I don't think I would even want to listen.
