These are also the same people who support wars and other radical military action, because they know that if another attack happens, it's not going to be anywhere near them.
If you're not one of these people, then what the hell do you care? But I'm sick of people supposedly being up in arms about something that happened in our city, then shitting on us left and right. If you don't want to hear it, I really don't care.

i'm not close to new york, but had a brother in sister in d.c. which was also hit that day. it's not as tho it was an attack just on new york-it may have been centered there, but it was an attack on the country.
this would be like saying only hawaiians should have taken issue with japan when they attacked pearl harbor.
