Crazy but true.
The New York City Police and Fire Departments are NOT invited to the Ground Zero observance in NYC on 9/11.
Not invited. The excuse is lack of space at the venue. All the politicans who want face time with the public have crowded out the people who should be in the front row. Nobody had to invite these guys to the World Trade Center when the planes hit they just showed up and did their jobs. It's shameful.
The police officers, firefighters, and emergency workers who searched the rubble for lost colleagues when the towers collapsed were not invited to the Sept. 11 ceremony. Their absence has become an issue and a media headache for New York’s mayor.
Port Authority deputy executive director Bill Baroni declined to give his thoughts on the exclusion, referring questions to city officials. He pointed out that New York City operates the memorial and is responsible for the invites, and said he chooses to empathize with those who will be there.
