People are TOO sensitive these days. This is absurd.
For the record, I completely agree with that sentiment. That seems a little over the top.
That being said. If there was one place on earth where people might be just a little bit sensitive, wouldn't Auschwitz be the place? To me, 11 million is a number. It's a huge number, but it's still a number. To countless millions of people across the world, it's their mom, their dad, their sisters, brothers, uncles, their identity.
Everything they ever loved crawled into gas chamber and were forklifted like cord wood into crematoriums and turned into dust. Towns and villages turned into ghost towns. I can't imagine the horror. I've seen the photos and the movies and can only dimly get a feel for what they went through.
In any case, the museum defended itself well. They're only out there to keep people comfortable on 100F days. It sure beats heat stroke.
