Its sad times we live in but life must go on. If you had it as a national holiday then that would be one less day business could be done and thats what most terrorists want, to disrupt the normality of things.
Understandable since you're overseas...naturally because American is so utterly focused on its internal affairs (or stuff blowing up overseas), it's been everywhere today.
Yet I still have to go to school. Not fair. It ought to be a day off, just like Labor Day.
I used to think this as well but you have to think that we don't get off for the day Peral Habor was bombed either so I doubt we will ever get off for September 11th

Not to be an a-hole, but Pearl Harbor was a military attack. For the most part (excluding the Pentagon), 9/11 was an attack on civilians. I really do think it should be a national holiday. IIRC Bush made some bulls*** holiday that doesn't even occur on the same day.
