    I remember how quickly people were ready to hate Muslims and how excited they were at the prospect of “getting back” at anyone.

    I remember my English teacher asking us if we felt like we were in danger in our bunk ass hick town and I quoted October Sky saying it would be “a waste of a bomb” to drop on us.

    David Cross had some really good “post 9/11” bits in his stand-up specials “Shut up you fucking baby” and “It’s not funny”
