TomPaine Story TomPaine Story: Story Toward a More Perfect Union September 11 brought a lot of changes to Americans all over our nation. Although this brought us together in ways we would have never imagined, it changed people s thoughts and actions all over the world. Teenagers went out in groups to help nurses and paramedics by donating food, supplies, blankets,etc. Police officers, firefighters, and volunteers, worked for days trying to locate trapped victims that had not yet been found. Cell hones companies were also using tracking devices to track down missing people calling for help. Everyone was working together to save victims from the remaining buildings. The tragedy of 9/11 has changed the way Americans feel about foreign policies. Before, America always had a positive outlook on things and never expected the worst.For example, the air port security in our nation has tremendously increased. In other countries, the security has always been strict. Other countries always had a negative outlook on things, they always expected the worst. Weve always been so accommodating towards other countries. Our political leaders are more cautious towards countries who call themselves our allies and our enemies. We have become more aggressive and demanding to our foreign neighbors. All over americans thought we were untouchable. This incident proved us wrong. They hit us right where it hurt and many loved ones were lost. Over 3,000 people perished on September 11. In conclusion, 9/11 has brought both the best and the worst in some people. Maybe this will be a lesson to the federal programs who should take threats way more serious before something like this happens again .
