I disagree with you about that. What better way to get the nation feeling a little better about what happened but to know that a group fought back? If a group a passengers can defeat these terrorist's, so can we as a nation. Right?

Personally, if they did shoot it down, I think it is only proper that they did. I would clearly see why they wouldnt tell us if they did though.
