| 'Teardrop' 911 Memorial |
After much back and forthing, this 'gift' from Russia's Putin to the US that was meant to commemorate the victims of 911 was erected in Bayonne, New Jersey in 2006.
First there was controversy. Many towns before Bayonne said, 'uh uh, no, I ain't having that here, no way.' The art community said that 'it was not just unpleasant, but to the point that it was offensive.' Uh huh. (look at it again.)
The message from Putin is 10 stories high, is loud and clear and cast in stone.
With a name like Pooting wouldn't you think he'd be just a little more sensitive?
