Homage?

Are war memorials places of homage? Or are they tourist spots? Are they built to remember the thousands of soldiers who died defending us while we were arguing American Idol? Or are they just spots for couples to hang out, children to eat cotton candy? Is a boat ride in front of India Gate justified? Is swimming in front of it justified? If you are in Delhi, go see India Gate in the late afternoon. You'll have a much better picture.

To the thousands slain in the line of fire - R.I.P.
