This is what I posted about 9/11:
If they open the KH for the brothers, they will have to do it for everybody. They had a golden opportunity on 9/11 by opening Bethel and they didn't do it, the goodwill and good publicity out of that was invaluable besides the human and compassion factor, but they couldn't see it.
I will be surprised if they open the Halls, but I could be wrong.
I now nothing about this comment:
NY, haven't had the privilege but was curious as to the account of doors being locked by the gb but ordinary bethelites opening them.
What I know is that they put a station at the Bridge and were giving water to the people going by and that they lent some of their fire fighting equipment, but they didn't open the doors as a refuge to the public.
