The Vietnam "wall" Memorial marked the end of inspiring memorials: they are all copies, but they lean to remember the enemy now. At best, the designer is copying and trying to hide it. Hence, an arc instead of a V shape.

Showing all the trees red pushed me over the edge. That color coupled with the arc seem deliberate. Does anyone remember the huge flap that Hart inspired by using a crescent shape on an outhouse in the B.C. comic strip. That was a comic strip and not a memorial, but the lefties sounded long and loud about that.

It is sacred ground, but these people died more than merely die. They were the first fighters against terrorism on September 11th 2001.

I keep remembering reactions to the 1994 Schwartenegger movie "True Lies" which depicted -- horrors! -- Muslim terrorists as Bad Guys.

CAIR and its ilk raised a holy stink about that ("It's a Religion o' Peace!").
