Ugly.

Why not a beautiful Remembrance Garden?

"Along this bumpy road, skeptics have questioned what the pillars have to do with the Holocaust, attacked the decision to put the memorial in its high-profile location and wondered aloud about why it is for the Jews and not other Nazi victims."

I agree - Hitler killed gays, gypsies, the mentally retarded and any other undesirable. Why is it the Jews feel they "own" the Holocaust?

It certainly looks ugly from the picture.

I remember thinking the Viet Nam Memorial was ugly from the pictures. You have to see it in person to appreciate is somber beauty.

I love the WWII memorial in DC that opened last year (or year before). Absolutely beautiful and majestic. And remember the huge fight that erupted over that?

Well, it sure is ugly.

Maybe that's the point. I dunno.

Boy Howdy I'm sure glad I'm not German.

I'm defensive enough as a white southerner.
