B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for September 11, 2011

AMEN !

AMEN! And Peace and Comfort to all the families and responders involved

worthy of Johnny.

love the poem!

Ditto !!

Yup

Hear, hear!

There are many heroes very deserving, NONE of them are politicians of the USA—Their reaction of being scared out of their minds has brought us 4 trillion in debt, an invasion of the wrong country for the wrong reasons, torture, loss of the very DEMOCRACY the heroes were/are trying to defend, TSA sexual abuse. What a better way to honor the heroes of 9/11, if even one USA politician would say, “With the strongest weapons in the world—freedom of speech and democracy—we are staking out the course….” (which was said by Norway PM Stoltenberg). Instead, US politicians play games trying to win points by their false hero-worship, hoping that the American public will stay as scared as they are. (and yes, I was hoping that it might change after 2008, but it sure hasn’t!)The politcians have done far more to destroy the USA than Osama bin Laden ever could have done.

Thank you so much for this mornings strip. It was very moving!

We have LOST freedom, and gained a false security.

Ugh. Not grateful for the attacks, not grateful for the repression that followed. As Bush said, “freedom was attacked today” and freedom has yet to recover ten years later. I miss the America of the 20th century.

“Political correctness” has ruined America.

Beautiful strip and I agree that it is worthy of Johnny.

well said!!

Glad to see one artist has has written a strip in memory of this day. Bless you !

This strip never fails to emote. God bless this strip.

thank you.

Nicely done!

Wiley’s poems are always great. This one poignant. Especially with another window open to Yo Yo Ma playing a tribute.

Allan V, take a look at all the others, most of the comics have a tribute in some form, don’t scorn the others that didn’t they give us humor which is as healing as remembering.

BC has always been a patriot and faith filled cartoon. Have been a reader for years. God Bless America.

I really hate to ask this question but I feel I must. What and how many Americans must die for the more than 100,000 innocent Iraqi civilians killed by American bombs and misdirected attacks? I do not think it should be the soldiers following their orders. Perhaps the politicians who sent them there?

(And does that include Rick Perry who has approved the execution of at least one innocent man?)

Great strip!

Thank you for this touching tribute.

thank you for a beautiful remembrance!

Thank you. What a beautiful poem.

Brought tears to my eyes. May God keep us in his care this 9/11 and always. And, peace to all on this earth.

Nicely stated. Poems are always good.

Great strip as usual from BC!

That was straight from his heart. God bless our heroes of 9-11.

Thank you for acknowledging the day in such a heart-felt way!

A simple verse, with complex tones. Yet elegant in its presentation… and loving in its message. Never forget them, the victims and the heros. They are forever part of us.

grog, celleca, the hag, Paula … “BC” is the third of my Alphabetical list of comics (yes, I"m THAT OCD) so when Adam@Home and Andy Capp didn’t show anything … I got a little saddened.Many more people then I expected had tributes, and some people, I expected to have some form of tribute, didn’t.

America needs you’re strip, and you’re always there. Terrific work, and thanks.

AMEN
