Buried at Fresh Kills

[mogster]

Kurt and Diane Horning does not wish to go to the city dump Fresh Kills to remember their son, and sues to get a memorial site for the dead after 911. They lost their son Matthew (26) in the terror attacks that day.

It boggles the mind, I have to say, how the victims are being cruelly used politically and at the same time have to pray for their loved ones at the city dump.

the greatest crime scene in US history.

3. Thanks to Rudy Giuliani...........

Supposedly Giuliani was the great fighter of organized crime in New York City, yet somehow the companies that got the big clean-up contracts at the WTC disaster site were mainly from the "well-connected" and mafia-affiliated types in New York State.

Members of some of these companies were enriched by the valuables lost by victims...jewelry, etc and I recall a picture of one beefy old goodfella who showed off an entire chest bone of a WTC victim among his "collectables" taken from the debris he had hauled to Fresh Kills. He showed it off in a pic in one of the daily tabloids.

Giuliani was among the professional "working poor" BEFORE 911. AFTER 911, he was so well-connected that he was able to become the owner of a bank, from what I have read.

5. No way! They continue to try to paint this philandering sob as a

saint. A thrice-married saint still approved of by the Church and its NYC head honcho, Egan.
