That corner is not your boyfriend's mother's final resting place. There is only one site in Ameican history, on American soil, that was both the object of a terrorist attack, and the final resting place of victims. That is the World Trade Center site, and it should be treated with the same respect as that afforded to Pearl Harbor.
