Around Dusty Roads and WMEO are taking a moment of silence in remembrance of all those lost and affected by the tragedy of 9/11 — from the victims, to the first responders, to those who worked through the aftermath, and to the families left behind. This act of remembrance connects us with the lives impacted on that day.
Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country. Words that are always associated with John F. Kennedy. Words that helped inspire us to walk on the moon. But words that today speak to the many sacrifices made by our loved ones in the armed forces.
Today our Nation is divided in more ways than ever. While loved ones fight on foreign soil, welfare, drugs and crime run rampant at home. Ban guns or protect our right to bear arms? Democrats and Republicans would bring the country to a standstill rather than work together.
50 years ago today John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. The controversy and conspiracy theories still abound. Single shooter, pawn of the evil empire? For some that question will never be answered.
But today, none of that matters.
Today is a day to Remember.
