Twitter Is Furious Over This Cosplay Couple, But Are They Really Depicting The 9/11 Tragedy?

So this happened at DragonCon in Atlanta on Sunday: a couple marched around the main convention room dressed, apparently, as the twin towers from the 9-11 New York terrorist attack.

Outrage ensued on Twitter and Reddit as a couple of photos of the cosplay costumes began circulating. The 15-year anniversary of the attacks in next week, after all.

So wrong & inappropriate! More than just a cosplay fail, it's foul. Cosplaying as the Twin Towers 9/11 = Disgusting pic.twitter.com/1dIphxArkX

2 cosplayers, who were NOT actual attendees at Dragon*Con, were kicked out for dressing up as the 9/11 towers.
