President George W. Bush delivers address on 9/11 from Sarasota school

Then-President George W. Bush was visiting Sarasota, just about seven months into his presidency, when he found out about the 9/11 terror attacks.

[@DC-dtom1776]

I was a senior in high school when this happened. The feeling was surreal and unlike anything I've felt before. It is something I hope no future American generation has to feel.

[@leisureclub_]

I think USA need to stop waging wars.... the people who did 9/11 were against the policies of USA being meddling in Middle east and destroying those countries..... so they tried to take revenge... I am not supporting those people... This same man man Bush, killed millions in Iraq alone after 9/11...

I was in 11th grade. It was trigonometry class, and another teacher came into our classroom to tell us about the first plane hitting. Our teacher turned on the TV for a few minutes and then turned it off and said that we had to get through the lesson. Most people in the classroom wanted to watch TV. But for 90 minutes we sat through trig class. Instead. The next block was economics, and I remember going into that class and our teacher had the TV on and he said "I'm not going to teach today. This is world history. You have to pay attention to it."

Looking back I realize that he was saying that to protect me from the violence and that I was to young to understand everything. My dad has since then passed away and if I could thank him for protecting me I would because children that young don’t need to know what happened that day.

I was in the 4th grade and in class when this happened. I lived in a small town in Alabama and I was one of the only few Latino kids in my school. I got bullied for being Mexican and when 9/11 happened I got bullied for being Latino and because people thought I was from the Middle East. As a kid you only focus on how things affect you and I hated 9/11 for causing me so much abuse and heartache. Now as an adult I realize those other kids were just scared and they didn’t know how to deal with that fear. It may be over 20 years ago but it still holds a long lasting hold on all of us.

I’m really curious what’s going through that kids head (the one to the left of Bush). I was around that age when 9/11 happened. I learned what happened, but I didn’t appreciate its magnitude - how could I, when I was only 10? When something this big happens, kids looked to their adults for how to react - I was only as scared as the teachers and parents in my life were. I could imagine being that kid and learning about it this way, knowing it’s super serious because of the solemn atmosphere, but not understanding the emotional and real life implications. He might be thinking how cool it is to be so close to the POTUS, or how boring all this ceremony and standing around is. He probably knows something big happened, but at that point it was just another a grown-up problem.

[@codelessunlimited7701]

I was 14 years old when this happened and it was around 6.30am because I love to watch the early Disney old cartoons. I thought it was a movie, but it was live. When I got school, everyone was shocked watching the twin towers smoking and everyone was running on the street of New York near the vicinity of the towers.

I'm from Chile, I was 15 and went to Boston to meet with my mom so we could celebrate my birthday on September 10. She used to work in the WTC and travelled to Boston where my aunt lives. All I have to say is that my family was so lucky that they decided to buy me that ticket to the USA so I could visit my mom, otherwise I really do not know what would've happened. I'm so sorry about the victims and their family. Hope you are all in peace now.

[@richieewinns]

Generations nowadays can’t and likely won’t understand what it was like to live through 9/11. Ain’t their fault, but we should all pay respects to those who died that day and the ones that worked diligently and with gallant effort.

He was scared you could see it in the way he picked up the speech and looked around the moment of silence was short because he needed to get out of there the country was under attack

[@cbarak72]

Why didn't anyone think of removing the kids from background? It's surreal to give such a speech in front of children. I guess the shock was too big for anyone to think clearly.

[@robertwest6350]

I was in the 2nd grade when this happened, we lived in California, and I remember vivdly waking up to get ready for school and my mom and brother where still home (theh where usually long gone before i woke up) completely fixated on our old Zenith TV watching Despierta America (basically Good Morning America but in Spanish) i see these 2 building on fire, the south tower collapsed right as I was starting to pay attention and my mom let out a big yelp and told me to go to my room, I ended up going to school that day and we had an assembly in the Multi Purpose Room and they told us that some very bad people had attacked our country and that we all needed to be brave and try to be on our best behavior so the bad people couldnt win. To this day I remeber all of these events so vividly, that event changed our country forever, I've lost to very good friend in the war on terror and I really dont want to lose anymore.
