World Trade Center Memorial Pools Plan SUCKS

Communitsts breaking our culture, that's who's to blame. A red-blooded Capitalist wants to send missiles to wherever the bastards were from, and then we build BIGGER towers where the first ones were, designed to withstand the same type of damage that brought down the first WTC.

Do you know what a sucking chest wound is? It's when you are shot in the chest and you try to breathe, but instead of drawing air through your throat you draw air through the sides of your body, but not in a way that means you are breathing. It means unless a doctor sees you and fast, you are dead right there.

In the ground in New York City, on a super-premium piece of real estate, there are a pair of sucking chest wounds on our nation. The intention apparently is to leave them untreated. Unless we do something between now and next November the patient will die.

Instead of letting the place be a monument to the triumph of the West over Islam, they are leaving it empty. In fact, it is a perpetual pool of crying-in-my-beer because boo-hoo poor me I got poked in the eye. You know what would have been fitting? Bigass twin towers rebuilt, and in a courtyard between them an iron fist smashing down on a broken crescent. THAT would be appropriate. This is not. And it's not even art, it is just meaningless form.

Now as for the design of the memorial itself, I can understand it. It is actually not horrible to look at, and looks moderately-easy (if expensive) to maintain. Unlike the one in Pennsylvania which is literally* designed as a mosque, with special glory given to the hijackers on the plane forced down by passengers who refused to be dominated by islam.
