It is my considered opinion that the Photos and videos from 9/11 are not shown enough. We as a nation have become numbed to the events of 9/11. It's as if the media as a whole have decided not to show such images.
Sure, there is a line between showing images respectfully and overshowing them, but clearly, they are undershown right now. It has been four years, and still the WTC site has not been rebuilt. Sure, the Pentagon got rebuilt in record time, but NYC cannot agree on how to proceed with the WTC site. For once, I am saddened that NYC has not listened to Donald Trump's plan for two new 115-story towers on the site. That project will best honor those who gave up their lives on the site. How? Because anything less than a complete restoration of the economic use of the site hands a victory to the Al Qaeda terrorists.
The latin in the title is the motto of the Clan MacIver -- "Nunquam Obliviscar" translates to "I will never forget".
