Don't they have a very modest memorial at the crash site in Pennsylvania. Now that would be a place worth visiting.

Finally, does anyone know where the bust of Rudy 9-11 is going to go?
Of course I'm not offended.

That's the point of all this.

I don't need anyone deciding for me what a picture means or convey. Neither do you.

Are you offended that I think those questions?

What would the plaque say?

Oh, I'm not offended, so save your money. I just think he is an idiot and that all those symbols of America appear to make him uncomfortable, so I do think he should move where he doesn't have to see them.

No, I find them to be of no interest, at all.

Don't sell yourself short, you're plenty offended. Each and everytime some right-wing potted plant makes that statement, you can rest assured they've been offended. They get offended a lot.

Incorrect, there were plenty of private individuals in this thread who made this happen. I think we should both thank them.

Thanks, kids!

I have to say, I was unaware that there were commemorative/supportive plagues being put up for families of murderers. When did this practice start?

It's only a matter of time before we start constructing ornate memorials to murder victims, at which time it will become relevant.

Hey, did you ever read or watch the film version of Fight Club?
