Please Note: This petition is meant to provide a forum for this subject alone. It is a petition, not a bulletin board. We will not sanitize controversial remarks if the comments are primarily in support of the petition’s purpose. But off-topic remarks are subject to removal on a case-by-case basis to keep the focus where it belongs. Thank you.
Important Mention: Those who read back over the comments will find that from time to time we have highlighted excerpts to help those who only have time to skim a page get a sense of what people are thinking and feeling. We rarely do that now and it was never a methodical effort, but just a window on public opinion regarding this monumentally important issue. The important thing to know is that no comment matters more than any other. Each one is valued and helps make the case that the public was sidelined on something that mattered so much.
TTA Note: Occasionally a current signature will disappear. When that happens it is because someone who has already signed the petition signs a second time and when the second signature is validated the two are automatically merged and appear in the original chronology. If someone leaves a second signature and comment, it automatically overwrites the earlier placement when the validation link is activated. If it isn’t activated, or it is made using a different email address, there will be duplicate signatures. When we recognize that someone has signed before, we will delete the earlier entry and, if it was verified, verify the new one, since the clear intention is to make the new comment visible. We may decide to manually include the earlier comment at the end of the current message.
Regarding anonymous signatures: Taking a stand using one’s full name is always preferred, but when a name is withheld, the signature and sentiments are still of value. In every case, we have an email address that corresponds with the entry and is kept private.
* Indicates that the signer has not yet activated the validation link, often due to spamblocking software. They are included out of respect for the sincerity of the comments.
we need to rebuild ,the way it was so we'll never ever forget.
God Bless, America!
Please do this. It's the right thing to do...
IT'S TIME!!!
There is only one opiton -REBUILD.
To see the Towers stand TALL again will be one step towards justice against those who murdered and destroyed on 9-11.
The towers should be rebuilt and all that nonsense of the freedom tower shoud go down the drain. We need a stronger icon such as the Twin Towers to show the world and the terrorist that we have never been defeated and we rise again but this time, we won't fall
I agree that the best option is to rebuild the Twin Towers to reflect the true strength of our country and our citizens and to show the world that we will not cower in the face of terrorism.
Rebuild the towers at least one story higher!
I think the Towers should be rebuilt, Don't forget all the Americans that died on 9/11. Let's do this in memory of them, if not for anyone or anything else. Do not let the terrorists win!
If the twin towers were rebuilt exactly the way they were, it would be the most symbolic thing that the U.S. has ever done. It would be somewhat of a "slap in the face" to all the terrorists.
We would love to have the Twin Towers back. The horizen is not the same.
They could dedicate one entire floor to the victims of 9/11 in tribute.
I have long felt that the Twin Towers should be rebuilt as was. The floors that the planes hit should be made into memorial and museum space.
Git'ur done!!!!!
The New York skyline will never be the same again without the Twin Towers. Please rebuild!
The towers should look exactly the way they did, majestic. Any engineering by strengthening of the structure itself should come into play, but as far as the appearance of the towers, let them stand exactly as they did and the skyline of NYC will send a great message to everyone who can see it.
Yes, I strongly agree that we should rebuild the twin tower as it was, only stronger. I think it would show to the world that how strong our nation is.
