Today is September 11th, Patriot Day. Never Forget. 🇺🇸

21 years ago, on September 11th, 2001, four commercial airliners traveling from the northeastern United States to California were hijacked mid-flight by 19 Islamic extremists. The hijackers were organized into three groups of five hijackers and one group of four. Each group had one hijacker who had received flight training and took over control of the aircraft. The explicit goal of these terrorists was to crash each plane into a prominent American building, causing mass casualties and partial or complete destruction of the targeted buildings.

The first plane to hit its target was American Airlines Flight 11. It was flown into the North Tower of the World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan at 8:46am. Seventeen minutes later at 9:03am, the World Trade Center's South Tower was hit by United Airlines Flight 175. Both 110-story towers collapsed within an hour and forty-two minutes killing thousands, and significantly damaging surrounding buildings.

A third flight, American Airlines Flight 77, flown from Dulles International Airport, was hijacked over Ohio. At 9:37am, it crashed into the west side of the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia, causing a partial collapse of the building's side killing 189 people. The fourth, and final flight, United Airlines Flight 93, was flown in the direction of Washington, D.C. This flight was the only plane not to hit its intended target, instead crashing in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10:03am. The plane's passengers attempted to regain control of the aircraft away from the terrorists and ultimately diverted the flight from its intended target, the White House or the U.S. Capitol, costing the lives of all 44 passengers aboard.

In addition to the $10 billion dollars in infrastructure and property damage, the attacks resulted in 2,977 fatalities, over 25,000 injuries, and substantial long-term health consequences. It remains the deadliest terrorist attack in human history and the single deadliest incident for firefighters and law enforcement officers in the history of the United States, with 340 and 72 killed, respectively.

To this day, after all the PSAs, posts and news reports regarding numerous incidents like this, we STILL can't comprehend how people keep messing the same mistakes to threaten or hobby. WETM - MyTwinTiers.com: Man shot after drawing airsoft pistol on trooper, deputy.

What's the fastest way to see our beloved sport outlawed? Be a du***ss like these morons, and use your airsoft guns to do stupid garbage like this:

It was troubling waking up to the news of a friend passing. Greg Hom meant so much to so many. I remember first meeting him at Airsoft Extreme's San Jose location, when he noticed I was checking out the Medicom Stormtroopers in the corner detolf, walked up and we just started shooting the s**t over how fragile they were. Personally, I'll miss the late night chats over bouts of insomnia, giving thoughtful, meaningful advice from a LEO's perspective, or just laughing about internet idiots and fanboying over Star Wars. Even moreso over The Mandalorian. I'll miss ya, big guy... we'll all miss ya.

We here at The NAM: National Airsoft Magazine would like to wish each and every one of you a fun, safe and Happy Halloween! Please remember to check your candy, don't drive inebriated (or with someone who is), and leave the airsoft guns at home... unless you're attending a Halloween airsoft event. And if that's the case, give 'em hell! 😈

Happy Independence Day, airsofters! Have fun and stay safe. And remember, if you're airsofting/MilSiming over the holiday weekend, remember, please do so responsibly. 🇺🇸

More proof common sense ain't all that common, anymore. Don't do what this father/son did. Ever. Hopefully the homeowner doesn't face any charges (although the father/son probably should). It doesn't get much dumber than this, folks. 🤦‍♂️

Police say a 10-year-old boy approached his father with an unusual request: Could he take him to do a drive-by shooting in Opa-locka with a paint gun? The father, 26-year-old Michael Williams, agreed, detectives say.

As we enjoy this 3-day weekend, we'd like to take a moment to thank those who paid the ultimate sacrifice to protect our way of life. 🇺🇸

And with that, another popular meeting place for NAM Staff (and childhood go-to for a few of us), closes its doors for good. Though if we're being honest, the writing's been on the wall for years. Still, Fry's, you will be missed.
