I’ve been to DC twice, and the last time, when we went to the Eternal Flame, there were maybe 50 people crowded around the flame, snapping pictures. Which is fine. It’s a unique experience, and I took a few pictures, too.

But these people (who mostly seemed to be foreign tourists and American teenagers) were exceptionally rude: talking quite loudly, pushing people out of the way, and generally acting in a way unbecoming visitors to a cemetery.

If you can find a time when these jerks aren’t there, it’s a moving tribute.
