People triggered over lights now?

It obviously goes deeper than just lights. 

But we get it, your trigger trope.

People with no empathy more upset by lights than lives.

Guess it makes sense.

Is that an argument?

Did it ever occur to you that he might be more aware of what the citizens of the five boroughs of New York want to commemorate than you?

Besides, I doubt the costs are comparable.

There's no study or poll to disprove your opinion so you feel comfortable presenting it as a possibility. But we know it's not true. Common sense and a shared sense of patriotism and loss between the boroughs of NY, who were victimized by that tragedy more than anyone, and the rest of the country dictate that a simple and inexpensive memorial to the victims of 9/11 is broadly supported. DeBlasio is attempting to deflect any event which may unite rather than divide. It's there for anyone to see and is willing to admit it. Regardless, his efforts to divide are irrelevant. The memorial will move forward despite his pettiness.

My point is this memorial is by and for the people of New York.
If they think those two towers of light are no longer worth doing, then DeBlasio is fulfilling their will.
But if they do think the towers of light are still worth doing, then de Blasio just earned himself a big black eye, and it might come up during the re-election campaign.
The founding fathers of this country gave us local government with local elections.
I don't see why we can't just let this play out the way it's going to play out and keep our opinion to ourselves.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

In the failed attempt to be the message boards "kooky" guy who challenges every view, Mike has managed to out himself as a man who hates the country he lives in. The transition was quick. Pray for his children.

Of course it was.
which is why we have federally funded in federally organized memorial events as well.
And there's also privately-funded memorials.

I could use that, actually, but not for the reason you think.  Thanks.  Anything you'd like me to pray for you on?

Do you honestly believe that a majority of the people in New York do not want to see that memorial?

I'm not sure, but I think Bill de Blasio has a better understanding of their feelings than either of us. When politicians do something unpopular, sometimes that's brave. Or it's just stupid. Canceling this show is either something he really believes in for some reason, and he's willing to risk his reputation over, or it's something that New Yorkers don't think is a big deal. maybe they'll get some letters and phone calls from people that they know our residents, telling them that they made a mistake. Maybe they'll reverse the decision if that happens.

Either way, the opinion of two dudes in Florida just does not matter. If they wanted to cancel the federal memorial, then I would have a pretty strong opinion... Personally I think 9/11 should be a national holiday.

It's obvious he prides himself on being the clever contrarian. Unfortunately he increasingly chooses indefensible ground on which to plant his flag. But as I stated before, he is keenly aware there is no concrete way to disprove his argument, as implausible as it is.

He's doing it for strictly political purposes. It really is that simple. Regardless, it's irrelevant now because it will happen.

Again, I hope your children are given the opportunity to love the country you hate.

Aren't you part of the whole make America great again movement?

Doesn't that imply you don't like the country?

You seem to hate the majority of the voters, the press and pretty much anyone outside of holders of your minority views. Hard to say you love the country or the people.

That depends on what you think defines the country, I guess.

This one line of your post is the perfect example of your naivety that I constantly point out.

Yeah lights, that's what it's about. You truly are one of the more dense folks posting around here.

Your jealousy of our country is not a good look for you.

That dude don't have any kids man. I seriously wonder if he is much more than 17/18 years old.

He does have kids.

My concern is more people like Mike minimizing the importance of 9/11 to their children and the long term impact on our country.
