it does not work that way. I find this comment unthoughtful and insensitive, ignorant and unempathic.

we are talking about why things are being postponed. things are postponed because **** was ****ed up...physically. there are places where nothing was affected physically.
9/11 ONLY affected people physically in New York. I'm sure the rest of the country felt it, and especially those who lost loved ones, but **** wouldn't get postponed in CA or FL or anywhere else in the country because of something that happened in NY.
The rest of the US (outside of NY) WAS back to normal in no time, because nothing happened to them for them not to be. The rest of the world just can't shut down because something horrible happened.
I don't think I'm being insensitive at all.
