I think we all remember where we were at during the 9-11 attacks. That event shows me that America needs to be a strong nation both morally and militarily. I agree that when someone hurts us, we respond in a way that they will be motivated to never do it again.

I thank all the people who go into careers dedicated into protecting others: soldiers, fire fighters, policemen, hospitals and other people who server others.

I feel blessed to be able to live in America. May God Bless America. May we as a people become humble before God, as we have strayed away from him. That is something I can work on. May we become a better educated and informed citizenry.  May we rely upon our own efforts to be better.
