Tragic Relativism: The Left Coast and Sept. 11
I like California. I really do. (Sort of.) But I share Jeff Jarvis’s anger with people (many from that state, in his round-up on the subject) who deny us the moral right to feel bad about September 11 because it doesn’t measure up to AIDS or famine in Africa or whatever. It isn’t a contest. What happened a year ago was bad, and reflecting thoughfully about it is necessary and good.
