>Beamer tried to place a credit card call. With FBI agents listening in on their call, Beamer informed Jefferson that hijackers had taken over United 93, that one passenger had been killed, and mentioned the dead pilots. He also stated that two of the hijackers had knives, and that one appeared to have a bomb strapped around his waist. When the hijackers veered the plane sharply south, Beamer briefly panicked, exclaiming, "We're going down! We're going down!"[3][9][10]
>Following this, the passengers and flight crew decided to act.[3] According to accounts of cell phone conversations, Beamer, along with Mark Bingham, Tom Burnett, and Jeremy Glick formed a plan to take the plane back from the hijackers.[11] They were joined by other passengers in discussing their options and voting on a course of action, ultimately deciding to storm the cockpit and take over the plane.[3] Beamer told Jefferson that the group was planning to "jump on" the hijackers and fly the plane into the ground before the hijackers' plan could be followed through.[8][9] Beamer recited the Lord's Prayer and the 23rd Psalm with Jefferson, prompting others to join in. Beamer requested of Jefferson, "If I don't make it, please call my family and let them know how much I love them." After this, Jefferson heard muffled voices and Beamer clearly answering, "Are you ready? Okay. Let's roll." These were Beamer's last words.[3][9][10]
>According to the 9/11 Commission Report, after the plane's voice data recorder was recovered, it revealed pounding and crashing sounds against the cockpit door and shouts and screams in English. "Let's get them!" a passenger cries. A hijacker shouts, "Allahu akbar!" ("God is great"). The plane crashed into an empty field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 580 miles an hour, killing everyone on board. The plane was twenty minutes of flying time away from its suspected target, the White House or the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.

Why don't most countries have a culture of school shootings like America does?
What are some other countries that do?

That's funny because the first guy to face the terrorist was a french guy who wanted to stay anonymous.

Americans just want to be on TV

We're just less likely to seek attention.

glory to heroes

The difference is we don't brag about being nice or helping people in need because it's a part of decent behaviour, while social trust in USA is so low that such acts are seen as out of this world. How could anyone possibly thinking helping someone that isn't their own family? I actually kind of feel bad that Americans don't get to experience what it feels like living in a community working together, but muhh socialism

Trying to act in the face of danger is what makes you a hero, not succeeding. Were fallen patriots in the War of Independence less heroic than the ones that survived?

>>74722354
who are they

>>74723839
Autistic school shooters.

This is why.

>wakes up in the middle of the night, hears a woman screaming

>>74718269
a really strong emphasis on violence used in righteous contexts in American media.
a lot more crime, especially in cities, usually has americans consider how they will act in defense and preservation more than other countries.
more of these incidents in the US have Americans more prepared. for instance, shooter drills in schools

>>74724800
It's the same here. If you're committing an act of self-defence and kill the guy with excessive force, even if the court accepts you genuinely thought it was legitimate, you're guilty of manslaughter.

Meanwhile, you can get drunk and punch a policewoman in the face and be home for dinner.

>>74724985
>more of these incidents in the US have Americans more prepared. for instance, shooter drills in schools
yeah works well mate

>>74724991
do you realise how stupid that would be if they accepted subjective reasonability over what was objectively reasonable?

>>74724992
eh, I'm not trying to assert that Americans are extremely prepared, it's just that the looming threat of these things probably has at least some small portion of the population better prepared.

honestly I think the whole thing is bs- we see more heroism here because we have more incidents here

Another key thing to note is that American media never covers all the self defense incidents with firearms.

>>74725016
In self-defence?

I'm expected to make an objectively reasonable decision when I see a woman being gang-raped and I have to fight three guys on the spur of the moment? Why should an aggressor be given leeway and a defender given none?

>>74725097
>I'm expected to make an objectively reasonable decision when I see a woman being gang-raped and I have to fight three guys on the spur of the moment
yes, and what is objectively reasonable is determined according to the circumstances for a person in your position
>Why should an aggressor be given leeway and a defender given none?
are you fucking stupid? Permitting anything that could be construed as reasonable gives quite a lot of scope for action

>>74722338
We learn about evolution in public schools. The idea that we teach Creationism is a meme.

Also a US territory that is socio-economically worse off than fucking Mississippi really has no room to criticize us.

>>74725164
>are you fucking stupid?
Objectively, no.

>Permitting anything that could be construed as reasonable gives quite a lot of scope for action
Using a subjective test still requires evidence that the defendant demonstrate that they thought it was reasonable. It's not a get-out-of-jail-free card.

An objective test means a court has to prosecute the most pitiful, defenceless victim in the most borderline cases.

>>74725327
You're actually fucking thick.

>>74718269
Yeaah.
Like on 9/11 when 4 people takes the plane with paper knives and 100+ murican heroes cowardly seat to their death and allow death of many others.
You must be soo proud.

Btw, did you know that other half of the world celebrate 9/11 every year?
Cant wait for double tower cake this year and watching sacred heroes attacks records with my family.
Always enjoy the part where murican terrorists jump from sky-high building covered in fire.

why tho? Is it impossible for someone from a country with a lower GDP to be smarter than an American?

The people in the planes that crashed into the buildings thought the terrorists were going to land somewhere to get their demands met, they didn't know the plane would be used against a building. The one plane where passengers knew of the other attacks had this happen >>74718315 so I don't know why you consider them cowards.
>You must be soo proud.
Of course
