Wouldn't be surprised to hear this decision was politically motivated.

NEW YORK (AP) — Twin beams of light representing the World Trade Center towers won't be beamed into the sky during this year's memorial of the 9/11 terror attacks in New York City because of concerns about the coronavirus pandemic, organizers of the annual ceremony said Thursday.
Michael Frazier, a spokesman for National September 11 Memorial & Museum, said organizers were concerned about the health risks to workers who would set up the display.
“The world’s beloved twin beams of light regrettably will not shine over Lower Manhattan as part of this year’s tributes,” Frazier said in a statement.

What? I can change the schedule, color, and brightness of my lights from my cellphone on the other side of the world, but y’all can’t setup some light beams to honor the thousands of lives taken by terrorist?

I don’t understand how COVID could be an excuse to not flip on a fricking light switch.

If it weren't for the lame bs excuses that came from the B1G and Pac12 about cancelling football, this would be the biggest lie of the year. DiBlasio's idiocy is behind this.

This is 100% politically motivated and it’s absolutely shameful and disgusting.
Democrats in 2020 hate this country.

If this hadn't been posted, how many on here would even know this was a thing?
I don't need a light display to remember what I witnessed.
Crap.

This is definitely political - liberals will literally start chopping their own dicks off in a couple months if they believe it will help bring down orange man
