9/11 Shaped American Society

The American Dream is still developing and transforming in a way. Even so, such as in the Ronald Reagan speech, it states “Once you began a great movement, there’s no telling where you’ll end. We meant to change a nation, and instead, we changed the world”. This quote suggests that there have been various changes and challenges within a person’s life or dream. In fact, an evolution has been rediscovered, we are to emerge or drive ourselves to continue to cause tremendous change.

The terrorist attacks on 9/11 have caused many debates over the years since they occurred back in 2001. Two American planes were hijacked and ran into the twin tower buildings, another was hijacked and headed for the pentagon, but thankfully never made it. Thousands of Americans lost their lives on the days of the attacks and to this day the sorrow hangs with us. Security was a huge debate of the time because America is supposed to be the safest nation there is, so how did this happen? America had lots of changes to make the attacks on September 11, 2001.

The morning of Tuesday September 11, 2011 is one of the biggest tradgies of all time. On this specific day four airlines were hijacked by an Islamic group that goes by the name al-Qaeda. The attacks took the lives of 2,996 innocent people, injured nearly 6,000 people, and caused at least $10 billion in infracture and property damage. These attacks, also known as the 9/11 attacks, will forever be remebered as one of the most horrific days for so many people around this world.

However, the Fourth Amendment is not an assurance against all search and seizures, only those that are deemed unreasonable by the law. According to the Legal Information institute an unreasonable search is any search conducted by a law enforcement officer without a search warrant and/or “without probable cause to believe that evidence of a crime is present.” () If any evidence is found during an illegal search and seizure then the evidence is

The events that happened shaped the world that day and started a whole new aspect to him as being president. Not only did Bush have ambition towards domestic policy

The future is based on the present and the ideas, concepts, and reforms people decide to execute every day. Everything that is going to happen can be changed by things that happen now in other words nothing happens without a cause and an effect. These are concepts expressed in Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 and he refers to them multiple times throughout the story.

Obama’s executive amnesty, Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA), in the upcoming Supreme Court case” () United States v. Texas. DAPA was put on hold back in February of 2015 due to having 26 states “filing a lawsuit against the executive action” (), Texas being one of the states. The lawsuit began with “former attorney general Greg Abbott, who is now the governor for the Lone Star State, but it remains alive under current Attorney General Ken Paxton” (). Paxton was able to get support from “Judge Andrew S. Hanen of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit” () which put DAPA at a standstill “preventing the federal government from implementing the program” (). Solicitor General Donald Verilli plans to use the argument that DAPA “goes against Congress’ framework that determines who may enter and stay in the country” ().

We know what JROTC has looked like in the past hundred years, and even at ancient times. But the future is something that isn’t guaranteed in the textbooks. In the future, this program will look much different than the present and there will be a different experience, concerning all types of different, new problems to figure out. All leading up to a bigger, hopefully better, impact on our society and the cadets that participate. I’ll leave off with this: Abraham Lincoln said: “The best way to predict the future is to create it.”

In the Allegory of the Cave, it talks about many complex things that hints to today’s society and how it might be working in a way. But in this quote listed above, I believe is to be one of the more important ones. From what I understand of it, it talks about how adult-like figures are placed in our lives at a young age. These figures are supposed to teach us what is good in the world and what is bad, what we are supposed to do and what we are not supposed to do. But what the young people do not know is, the world is not exactly how the figures say it is.

If the world I lived in had no freedom to think it would be a freighting place. How would I be any different than a robot? The only things I would be allowed to do are the objectives the government assigns me to do. The NSA has disclosed their information on tapping phones to look for any sign of threat that can harm the public. Who is to say that the government will not use this to find those who have any rebellious thoughts against the government.

On September 11, 2001, Americans changed the way they lived their lives. They went from not worrying about their safety, to worrying about whether today was going to be their last day alive. September 11th took the lives of many innocent people that should not have lost their lives. The 911 memorial garden is the most important monument because it shows that terrorists shattered America ’s sense of safety, and courageous American citizens would give their lives in the years that followed as they fearlessly joined the fight against terrorism around the world.

The reason that historians differ on the causes, effects, and who was responsible for “historical events” is because memory is reconstructive and unreliable. Therefore the written history of 9-11 is affected by bias because the writers, children, and adults memories are affected by the schemas of each one’s individual culture. This can change the recollection of 9-11 and other traumatic events. Memories linked to 9-11 differ between different cultures.

In Robert Morgan’s, “There is no true history of the westward expansion”, his claims of westward expansion are more sensible than any other mans at that time. “It is natural and perhaps necessary for historians and story-tellers to view the dramatic shifts of history through the actions of a few famous figures, whether heroes or villains.” (Robert Morgan paragraph 4 line 2) By saying this, Morgan is saying that most stories that a reader will read, will be one sided. With westward expansion, nobody wants to tell the bad things that happened, but only the good things.

Did you know that the 9/11 attack was not the first terrorist attack on the World Trade Center? On the 11th of September in the year 2001, Islamic terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes and crashed two of them in the World Trade Center in New York City. One of the other planes was crashed into the Pentagon in Virginia while the last plane was driven to the ground in a field in Pennsylvania. 9/11 changed American society by improving security but also by increasing ongoing wars. Immigration and deportation were also increased because of 9/11.

In the history of America, the history of the world, never had such unexpected terror descended from the skies. In one hour, the peace and relative quite of 9:45 AM in New York City, was disrupted by a plane circling overhead. Curiosity turned to aghast and shock as the plane started diving toward one of the twin towers. It crashed into an upper story of the building, spewing fire and showering those below with debris. This was only one of 4 hijacked planes, heading toward other United States landmarks.
