Outraged!
Disgusting. People have no respect anymore, no regard for others.
Someday they will learn - Life has a way of coming full circle.
Sounds like a Mikey Moore stunt.
Most of those “kids” are old enough to know better. If their schools are anything like ours, they aren’t taught much in the way of real history, just the PC version, so most probably know nothing about Verdun or much else related to WW1.
Those POS are not Children by any stretch of the imagination.
My google-fu fails me, but I’m reminded of an older editorial cartoon (memorial day? Veterans day?) showing a couple of kids running and playing in a veteran cemetery, while their younger dad apologizes to an elderly veteran, saying something like “I’m sorry, they don’t know what this place means”, and the veteran replies “That was sort of the idea”.
Gettysburg averaged 2,352 dead per day for three days. Verdun averaged roughly half as many dead per day, but it lasted 100 times as long. For anyone to show disrespect on that battlefield should appall all decent people and even some liberals.
I sort of see where that German film maker was going but should have used maybe a fake cemetery for his video. This was totally wrong.
I worked in Funeral Service for three years, and was taught one does NOT step on a grave. There are certain situations where you have to step on a grave, because of its proximity to another grave you’re preparing, and you always apologise to the person in the grave. Most of the time they understand.
I just buried my father. I always carefully avoid walking on top of a grave. It is so disrespectful.
Can't help but wonder if there wasn't some neo-nazi organization slithering along and promoting this abomination...
And, most of those "kids" weren't kids. The folks who pulled this should be turned over to descendants of those who died at Verdun -- with hoe and pickaxe handles handed out in abundance...
