Listen and never forget

And how is that tacky? This is what we are up against.. people so soon forget.
Man made catastrophe indeed.

I doubt highly that anyone has forgotten. It's as inane as Darryl Worley's "Have You Forgotten", some two years after it happened. No, we haven't forgotten, no one has forgotten. To hear the death screams of someone killed that day is abominable, and does nothing to preserve their honor, only to create blind, foolish rage.

So no, people don't "so soon forget", but they won't be whipped into a brainless frenzy because you've decided to play the final moments of a person's death. That goes in the category of people who like to watch beheadings by terrorists, which is something I find quite disgusting, I might add.

Forgotten. Hah.

Is that what it is? Thanks for the warning, J. I'll find other ways to remember. I think it's fair to say that I remember almost every day.

Your intentions are good, I'm sure, Rulius, but...this is just...too invasive. Someone died in a horrible and (accidentally) public way, but that doesn't make it right for me to listen in on his/her agony.

Edit: But of course, you need to do what you think is right.

I'm not mad or anything, I just didn't expect that. Things like that always disturb me emotionally, so don't feel like I was attacking you. It was more an after effect of hearing that horrible audio.

There's also a limited length of time one can stay "angry" at something before one starts to go insane about it. Am I mad that 9/11 happened? Yup. But I don't need nor want someone to come around once a year in September shouting "THEY DIED BECAUSE OF THEM!!! LET'S KILL 'EM ALL!!!".
 
's OK as far as I'm concerned - but that's because I didn't listen to it. (Thanks again, J!) Posting it is OK, IMO, but a warning would be in order, I think.
 
The guy apologised sincerely and numerous times, I'd think you could give him a break, unless you're just here to kick him when he's down of course.
 
Yeah, as far as I'm concerned there's no problem here now. I was just shaken by what I had heard.
