"Freedom Tower" sounded like something a jingoistic slackjaw would come up with. That shit would play in Florida or Alabama, but not New York. The new name is better.

Yeah. I agree with the renaming, but "Freedom Tower was too provocative a name" is a lame reason.

The name change only makes sense. The person who named it the freedom tower is probably the same genius that changed the triborough bridge to the rfk bridge. I think the area known as ground zero will always be referred to as the world trade center when all the building is done.

I'm sure I was in '' 1 World Trade Centre'' last July when I visited the great city of New York. I have a picture of '' one world trade centre''...:confused:

I love that they are naming it World Trade Center again. If it were up to me, I would have rebuilt the towers in the exact same exterior as the old ones.

I grew up with a view of the Twin Towers from my apartment in Queens so it holds a special place in my heart.

Freedom Tower was a tacky name. I guess it left a bad taste in my mouth when they changed the name of french fries to freedom fries at the cafeteria at Capitol Hill when France, rightfully, disagreed with us about invading Iraq.

...It would've been called the new Trade Center by people even if it was officially called the Freedom Tower, because it is precisely that: the new World Trade Center. To me it's an aptly named middle finger to those who get on their knees like cocksuckers to pray to the East, named something that they couldn't destroy, no matter how many boy-humping, camel jockey, bomb-wearing, shit-colored people they send here on missions. Naming it something else would imply loss or defeat, which is what they want, which is what we will never give them...

I agree with you except the blanket statement about Islam. Just cause someone is of the Islamic faith, does not make them a terrorist.

Aside from that, you're right on. Naming it World Trade Center again is a HUGE fuck you to the people responsible for 9/11.

...you're right. In fact I meant to lay the 'cocksuckers who pray to the east' blanket only on those fudamentalists who would think to attack us, not on the non-militarized, secular Muslims...

I also agree that I would have preferred to see the Twin Towers rebuilt, but thank god they're dropping that lame Kindergarden "Freedom Tower" name and calling the place the World Trade Center again.

Why not make it into a huge missle silo, so next time anyone even thinks of doing that shit again, we can explode their entire fucking village? Stupid cave dwelling shitheads. I hope they all get dysentary and shit their curry brains out. No offense to any normal people who like curry...or live in caves.

They should call it "American Murder Central." That way persons who work there for such corporations as were in the original towers can have a reminder of what they are doing. Then if there is another attack on said building, we won't have to talk about it as much.

Not to get all tinfoil hat on everyone, but it's appropriate that Freedom is no longer being considered and it's ONE WORLD trade center for everyone.

What's the message? If you knock down two of our buildings we'll rebuild one. Slightly smaller and it'll take us about 20 years to do it?

Just cause someone is of the Islamic faith, does not make them a terrorist.


But if someone is of the islamic faith is it safe to assume they are a misogynist and believe that women are inferior in every way and unworthy to show their face in public, walk with a man who isn't a relative, drive a car, get an education, etc?

'Freedom Tower' is stupid and is politically loaded..the idea of calling it freedom tower presupposes that America is for freedom, and the terrorists are against freedom-so they blewup our wtc building ..it's stupid because the conflict in the ME is not so simple, the Palestinians or Iraqis do not see America as supporting freedom.. like a conflict is not just freedom on one side and oppression on the other ; if it were that simple there would not be any conflict, everyone would be for freedom-yeaye:nuts:

I don't see why they can't just call it the WTC Memorial Plaza and not build anything there. It should be turned into a memorial park where people can pay respects to everyone who died that day, whether it was the people in the buildings, on the flights, or in DC.

joyb
06-25-2009, 08:27 AM
fuck the memorial park- its a waste of space and the plot of land is too small to make a decent park, all that real estate for some shitty plaque that says bla bla bla it was a sad day.. it will become a drug pimping empty lot with a plaque that artie gets his heroin from.

I think Freedom Tower sounds stupid. I knew three people who died in the Towers....Freedom Towers just sounds so cliche and dumb. If we are not going to use the primo land in lower Manhattan to conduct business in (as it is in the financial district) can we at least have a memorial park to have for the memory of all of our dead citizens?
