i don't like that the writer characterizes celebration at Ground Zero as a "frat boy reaction." or when anyone feels like they need to chide someone else for expressing or having a feeling.
example:
i'm hungry.
how can you think about food at a time like this?

or:
i'm glad Osama bin Laden is dead.
you should never celebrate the death of another human being.
