'Path of Honor' created to remember 9/11 victims

PARKVILLE, Md. —Chuck Ritz said he made a promise almost 14 years ago never to forget the victims killed on 9/11 and the sacrifices made by the first responders and so many others on that infamous day in U.S.history.

That promise is on full display along Putty Hill Avenue in Parkville. Along a 3/4-mile stretch from Harford Road to the fire station on Old Harford Road, a "Path of Honor" has been decorated with 2,977 flags, one to represent each victim of 9/11.

"Everything we do is in remembrance of 9/11," said Ritz, the founder of the Hope and Peace Foundation, told WBAL-TV 11 News. "Our motto is 'keeping the promise.' Right after 9/11 we made a promise never to forget not only the lives lost on that day but also of the first responders and those that worked on the piles in the months that followed."

This is very offensive to Muslims, and must be removed!
Those men were hero's that flew those planes into the towers, just ask anyone that works at Lido Pizza, they will tell you that! (Muslims all of them)
