A huge portion of those who live in the USA consider the event "a NY thing" (and worse; even on the day it happened) even though it has changed our way of living for ever...

When anyone, for any reason; posts a picture or recalls the event, anywhere... such a response as Mike's is totally out of order because the thread would have (and did) continue.

Fred had the balls to call it as it is... Congrats to him...
