I stayed out of that other topic as it became a ****ing contest between
two people that should've gone private a LONG time ago.

On the videos...when I was visiting Ground Zero a couple months
ago, there were these asian folks trying to sell "cool" books of
pictures of 9/11 at the site with a smile on their face. The mood
there was understandably pretty somber, but it was turning to
anger with these clowns hanging around and pushing their product.
I look at the guy who started this whole subject, who I'd never
personally seen in these groups before, the same way. Usually
people like him, with blatant advertising, who wasnt a regular
poster on here, would be ran out so fast it made the head spin.
Many people put up with Jay's advertising because he has been
here for a long while, before the hotel, isn't a troll, and posts
on all kinds of subjects. This other guy wasn't that at all, he just
lobs a molotov coctail of a link, and tries to justify his site that would
usually end up with everyone flaming or plonking him. Why the
special treatment?

It's nothing but sensational aviation snuff videos. If that does it
for you, have at it. It isn't censorship if someone doesnt agree
with showing them to the world with glee. Censorship is demanding
they be taken down, which I didnt hear in Dudleys (much too long)
comments. We all know there is that portion of society that likes
to see this stuff, they also like reality-tv, which, I dont know about
you, I can't wait for that fad to permanently go away. I guess some
people need to see misery, death, and destruction to either feel
"alive" or be consoled that they don't have it so bad after all. A
pretty pathetic existence IMNSHO.

Jay, I didnt see the part of your site with the crash videos, and assume
it's been altered now. But I keep up several sites that change with
time, I get the impression you added videos that weren't so "cool"
but didnt change the page description? There's not much an excuse
for a mistake like that, there is nothing to enjoy or that is cool
about the kinds of videos people have been discussing on here.
The 9/11 shots are important in that we never forget, but sure arent
enjoyable or cool, once again, in my opinion.
