the gay hero of 9/11

**removed**
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
this is the story i heard about the flight that crashed in Pennsylvania farmland and the terrorists planned to crash into the white house.
there was this 6'5" 250 pound rugby player from san francisco, he was not used to be pushed
around by anybody. the terrorists herded all
the passengers to the back of the plane. they
knew by their cellphones what was going to happen.
CORRECTION: I WAS WRONG, HE DIDNT SAY
"LETS ROLL" THAT WAS ANOTHER HERO.
==========================================
God bless them.

Good for him and those who went with him. I didn't know it was a 250lb rugby player who lead the assault?

Anyways, to me it doesn't matter if he was gay or not....

I really don't think the people would be on the plane calling up there love one to say someone is charging someone on the plane. I know I wouldn't, id call up the ones I love to say good bye and I will miss them.

Just me tho.

Unless the flight recorder pick up something, but from what I understand they were pushed to the back of the plane.

A hero. Period. He and everyone on that flight did our country a great service and it is sad that such patriots had to die. They thought of our lives before their own and they made the ultimate sacrifice.


The only thing...
What does him being gay have to do with anything?


As with all threads, we will be monitoring. Please keep respect in mind when replying. The events of the last thread became ridiculous. This is a potential topic where many have firm convictions one way or another for their own reasons. Let's not get into another heated debate, please. Respect others and treat them as you'd like to be treated. This is a family forum.

Although I do not think homosexuality is normal, it has nothing to do with the following statement:

I find it hard to believe the above is true, simply because i dont think anyone would bother mentioning to their loved one that a gay person was leading the charge. Such a fact would not be interesting at all to someone about to lose their life. Also how would they know he was gay? Did he scream 'Im gay and I say we fight!' in the plane?.

Sounds more like badly timed junk* mail to me, sorry.

*The word 'junk' in refernce to the post. Not to the loss of life.

Im just trying to imagine why the fact that someone is gay, might be of interest to someone else about to lose their life.

Of such interest that they would want to share it with others in their dying moment.

This is not a bash at gays.
If someone thinks it is, I just corrected you.
