The Normalcy Bias
The normalcy bias refers to an extreme mental state people enter when facing a disaster. It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of the government to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred that it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.
Are you suffering from normalcy bias?

Re: in remembrance of those who have fallen
Can't believe 6 years have passed already. 
I remember I was doing my homework, and my uncle and aunt came to a visit, and said if we've seen what's going on... Turned on CNN and my god. 
Then I got into it a bit, and saw "Loose Change" a somehow documentary about all being setup by mr. Bush himself... There are a lot of views on this, and I think only a few know the real truth about it.

Re: in remembrance of those who have fallen
We remember those who are lost and we grieve for those who are left behind. I will never forget that day.

Re: in remembrance of those who have fallen
indeed.... 
i was in 5th grade when that happened, i was still too young to know what was going on, at the time, i thought it was just some idiots that dont know how to fly a plane
for some reason, our teachers saw fit not to let us see the actuall fall of the towers
not untill i got home did i see that footage

Same situation here.

Re: in remembrance of those who have fallen
It was a sad, sad day. I remember it still like it was yesterday. I woke up to my mom's terrifying yell. Her voice was shaking. I came down stairs and saw the first tower had been hit. I then went to school and watched as the other had been hit and they both fell. I was in my 9th grade English Class as all we did was watch the news of this horrifying event.

There is nothing respectful about bringing whatever misplaced political views you have into a thread remembering innocent victims in a horrific crime against humanity.
Please keep your political views out of this thread. Thanks.
