In the very beginning a character is shown snorting drugs for a split second before trying to hide it, although it is easy to miss.

There is an office party where you see two people trying to sneak into an office to have sex. Later you see the bad guys breaking up their exchange. It's an office party. Clearly they are not married.

The move was made long before 9/11, so no. Though people triggered by 9/11 may want to be cautious anyway, as the movie takes place in a very tall building that is hijacked by terrorists, the building explodes several times, and a character is shown falling to his death from the building.

Yes, absolutely. The entire movie is copaganda! There's a scene where a cop mentions an accidental murder he committed, but most of the movie centers around heroic cops and everyone else is either helpless or getting in the way.

There are flashing lights at many points in the movie, such as muzzle flare from machine guns. The two times you see something resembling a hockey puck, be aware that you are about to see a big flash of light. When the terrorists first take over the building there are a few mins of various flashing lights such as electrical sparks. There are regularly flashing lights on the roof, beware any roof scene. There are several explosions. One is when John sends an office chair and a computer monitor down an elevator shaft. Another is when John is about to jump off the roof with the fire hose. To be honest, it's pretty bright for a few mins after he jumps.
