    Rest In Peace. Those two came from an engine company that lost 11 firefighters on 9/11.

    Keep them and their families in your prayers.

        This building is a joke.... We need to tell the Krauts, "demo the dam thing down or the USA claims ownership". The Krauts don't care, its not on their soil.

        Where is "WTF ?" George Dubya on this.

        Oh yeah,,, the filthy rich conservatives don't bother one another.

        I'm just grateful that this building didn't crumble to the ground and cause even greater loss of life.

        Skysrapers in lower Manhattan are prown to total collapse from fire.

          Poor firefighters...

          However, I find it interesting that the building was burning like crazy, but didn't collapse. Hmmmm... That's because, contrary to popular belief, fire can't burn down a concrete & steel skyscraper.

          Just a thought.

            It didn't have thousands of pounds of jet fuel, but hey, maybe this fire was started by some misguided leftist in the belief they might buttress their nonsense. I hope you were not involved and I certainly hope they catch the arsonist criminals who started the fire.

            So , Who got all that money that was donated to the Firefighters who gave thier lives originally ? Several million dollars worth . And who was in charge of it ? Did the families recieve a nice large portion of it like they should have ? Anyone know those families in NYC ?

              ...and six posts for a "9/11 truther" to post.

              This fire did not start from a Boeing 747 slamming into it. Sorry if I just squashed a conspiracy.

                WTC 7 wasn't slammed by a 747 and still collapsed to the ground. Sorry if I just squashed your debunking. :-)

                I hope they catch the culprits who started the fire. I won't be surprised if they have connections to some foreign interest or possibly home grown leftist. In any case, they can now be charged with murder.

                  I wouldn't be opposed to pulling their fingernails out one by one before putting them in an electric chair.

                    amazing how the death of two brave individuals degenerates into conspiracy theory discussion about the WTC collapse.
