Reflecting on Peace at the OKC Memorial (Oklahoma City, OK)

[AmericasMaji]

Thank you for posting this. I annotated it in a video I posted today. It is a good prelude to the story on Bill Clinton becoming a member of the Trustees of the Memorial. The site marks the time when the nation *again* changed. I wonder if it is not a precursor to something much worse ... or much better ... in the nation. The lesson seems lost. I have visited it twice, it is only three hours north of me. Again, thank you for the posting.

Thanks for posting. I still remember that beautiful morning. In contrast,I still can't believe that worst thing happend in OKC. I watched TV all day and all night. I wish I could go back there and pray for them.

Oh, do other people still do the 168 seconds of silence in school on April 19th? I'm from Moore and we don't do it anymore, which is a mistake i think.

I was 7 and it's still fresh in my memory. My dad was driving a block away when the bombing happened. He called to let my mom know he was okay, then helped with the rescue efforts.

I am from Oklahoma and my grandad was one of the surgeons who helped the injured people get operated!

I was only three when the bombing occured. Our house was five miles away, and I can't remember much, but I now know the full impact of the incident.
