![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 9-11 A LEGAL HOLIDAY This is an excellent idea......and to have come from a teenager....just think!!!!!!!! An idea from the son of a 9/11 firefighter... So before you delete this, just remember that this is a 14 year-old boy who lost his father on September 11th. All you're asked to do is type, point and click. He's got a really great idea, keep reading. " Hello, I lost my Dad on September 11th; he was Chief Edward Geraghty, Battalion 9, New York City Fire Department. He lost his life with many other heroes that day, victims of the terrorists. Firefighters from all over have come to the aid and rescue of the tragedy in New York and Washington , D.C. Many firefighters lost their lives to save someone else's. The truth of the matter is, they do this every single day. They truly are heroes. I know many people feel helpless, especially those who live far from NYC and D.C. We all want to do something to show our appreciation, our support! I think we can... In honor of the bravery, courage and determination of American firefighters, there should be a day in our nation to celebrate and appreciate their hard-work and never-ending passion for saving lives. I think we should honor all those other heroes who still live today. I'm starting a petition for a National Firefighters Day. Will you help make every September 11th 'National Firefighters Day'? Please join me! Thank you, Connor Geraghty, age 14, Rockville Centre ,New York . (I Love U, DAD!!)

Yes it should be a holiday just like others.

I would not want a holiday to remind me of the failure of our government that caused the terrible deaths of thousands of innocents. I would also not want a holiday to remind me of the catalyste that led Bush to perpetrate his incredible crime of mass murder with an illegal war. I also believe that the survivors, families of the lost, would not wish to have a reminder of their loss.
