I think anyone trying to make a buck off of 9/11 should be shot. I
don't care what they are selling.
JMO, YMMV.


Well, I think you're going to kill off about half of the US if you do that.
Stores selling supplies, bottled water, duct tape and plastic at
astronomical prices. US flag stickers that all suddenly appeared on
everyone's car after 9/11. t-shirts, etc. All the anti bin-laden crap (like
bin laden shooting targets) on ebay. Hiked up gas prices in some areas. 24
hour media coverage, and people looking for prime advertising spots on those
broadcasts for their commercials. Books (memorial books, picture books, and
the generic flood of "what your government doesn't want you to know" books),
Videos (I saw a few "remember the firefighters" videos last week at the
mall). All the prime time TV specials afterwards.. I'm sure magazines and
newspapers featuring pictures of the towers all sold like hot cakes too. I'm
sure I could go on..
