American male

[SirStev0]

do you think that the american male has turned more pussified

for example when the hijackers took over the planes on 9-11 why didnt someone fvck their day up. there was like three of them and they had box cutters. 4-5 guys could have rocked their worlds.

I predict this thread will cause much controversy.

Try finding out what the actual circumstances on the planes where believed to have been. Therein lies your answer.

Every asshat is going to say they would do something about it, but once again they have never been in such a situation so it is all bs talk.

Serious answer: It's really impossible to tell how anyone would react to such a situation until they're thrust into the middle of it. Certainly there would be a lot of shock, surprise, and uncertainty (well, maybe not NOW, but definitely then), which would result in inaction. I think it's foolish to make generalizations about "the American male" based on this, and I question your political motivation.

they probably thought it would be like any other hijacking... just wait a few days parked on some runway. not crashing into a building

Before 9-11 it was assumed that if you did what the hijackers wanted, you (probably) wouldnt get killed.

Way to go, insult your audience. You're an idiot; please go away.

Yeah I was going to say that too. Back then such things were solved diplomatically.

so then, what exactly is your theory?

if the American male was less of a pussy, they would have heroically thwarted their hijack attempts? you've been watching too many die hard movies, my friend.

i believe in the pussification of america. but i dont really think 9/11 is an example of it.

edit:
pussification of america is not gender-specific, imo.

 

[SirStev0]

i agree with that last one... we never have been in the situation... but then again i believe that we are being taught that if we dont take action we will be safer. in other words dont piss off the hijackers. movies and tv show us that. the dumb securty gaurd who tries to stop the hostage takers at the bank always get shot... it is not until they are talked out of the hostage situation that everyone is set free safely. i wonder if those people on the plane thought if they left them alone then they would all be set free eventually. but if they fought they would have been killed...

Yes, I believe he would have. While doing that, he would pulled some unbelievable stunts, seduced the air hostess, and said some memorable one liners.

 

[iamme]

btw, i have no doubt the pussification of American males is going on right now.

but, as stated above, 9/11 is a stupid example.

Queer Eye for a Straight Guy would have made more sense

 

[Actaeon]

I believe this was already discussed.

They threatened the lifes of the hostess' and I guess could claim to detonate a bomb if anyone resisted. They had no idea they were going to fly into a building killing all of them regardless. The only crew that did fight back found out the plans, so they prevented that from happening.

 

[TommyVercetti]

But hold on. The passengers on one of the planes did fight back, and were successful.

I know I would have. Nothing like that had ever been attempted before. I imagine airline passengers will try to subdue hijackers from now on.
