I can't comprehend how you could be so insensitive as to completely dismiss the human impact of 9/11 in New York. It was an attack that caused the death, not some "out of the blue" collapse. You know this. Everyone does.

The aircraft collisions caused the deaths of those onboard the aircraft and most of those in the floor of the crash zones. That the buildings collasped when perhaps they should have withstood the fires caused the deaths of the others.
Would we be asking for "papers please" on the MBTA if the death toll on Sept. 11th was 300 instead of 3000?
Now, as shown by the stats for gun deaths and car deaths, should we not just confiscate all guns and cars in the USA? I mean we'd save the lives of over 50,000 people a year! Where is your sensitivity to this human impact?
