Reply #7: A little bit of bullshit here, though [View All]

I was 40 blocks north of the World Trade Towers at 8:46AM on September 11 – and saw a plane sticking out of Tower One five seconds after it hit. I happened to be running in a Democratic Primary for Mayor being held that very morning and so was in a position to watch New Yorkers that day and the next several weeks demonstrate unmatchable courage and compassion in the most tragic of circumstances.

I was four blocks north of the World Trade Center Towers at 8:46 on September 11, and you sure as shit did not see "a plane sticking out of Tower One five seconds after it hit," unless you were seeing some ghostly after-image. That thing exploded immediately on entering. The only thing you saw five seconds after it hit was the last whisp of the tremendous fireball, the gaping hole, and the rush of papers floating east on the wind. BTW, I was four blocks north of the WTC handing out campaign literature for Mark Green and a city council candidate at 30 Chambers Street.
