Every American old enough to comprehend death and bad things has their memory of where they where and whatever dumb shit they were doing when the twin towers fell. Kenny Chesney or whoever wrote a fucking song about it.
Even if this dumbass was trying to make a comparison of the graviy of events its like trying to compare Kristalnacht to the time your mom got you the wrong flavor ice cream cake for your 8th birthdsy and it ruined everything.
Ones an event people the world over remember or know of because it was an important or far reaching event that would effect pretty much everybody alive and shape the world, global and national politics, and the course of the future, the other is a personal overreaction to a benign global release of a product for a relatively small market at the time. If you asked anybody alive at the time who JFK was, theyd have an answer. If you asked anybody who Mario was, youd have a range from "Mario who? Which Mario, I know a buncha Italians!" To "Who's Mario?" And maybe only 10 percent would be say "Oh you mean Super Mario!?"
I had some more thoughts besides these obvious criticisms but its just so stupid, they got away from me sice I got dumber even trying to comprehend how this dude thought he could write that without it being embarrassing or how he thought he could defend it as a train of thought. Its pretty fucking offensive to the people who died, at best, I thought you were liberal Bob? Or does it not matter since they may have been white men?
