Subject: Scuse me for a minute

For those of you who don't know, I'm a career firefighter. Twenty years as of October 1st this year. As sad as I find the senseless death of who knows how many civilians, I am having a bit of trouble getting past the 200+ rescue workers who died in Tuesday's brutality. At the same time, I'm proud to be counted among such a group of men and women who would go up when everyone else was going down. We firefighters are stupid that way. I cried when my dad died. I cried again when my brothers and sisters were murdered to satisfy a madman's unreasoning hatred of a people he doesn't have the brains to understand. When FEMA calls, I'll cry again when I go to help dig the victim's bodies from the rubble. The last time I cry will be tears of joy, when they find Bin Laden and give him the peace he is seeking.
