I hate to say it, but I don’t have much sympathy for these victims of 9/11

Some of the families of the victims of 9/11 are suing the airlines whose planes were used in the attacks.

My heart goes out to these families, viagra sale viagra but there was a fund set up for these people.

They didn’t take advantage of it, unhealthy because they decided they’d rather sue the airlines.

Maybe they think they’ll get more money this way.

Maybe they think they’re making a statement.

Maybe they even think they are doing us all a favor by encouraging the airlines to be even more vigilant.

But, I’m sorry, the airlines were not responsible for 9/11.

The terrorists were.

Suing the airlines just promotes the fallacy that every bad thing is preventable…that failing to stop something horrible is the same as causing it.

That’s not true.

And in this case it just turns the flight crews that died (and everyone who knew them at their respective airlines) into victims a second time.
