Sometimes people need to de-stress a bit. There are however more and less appropriate way of doing this within the historical site. Walking along the rail-line of the platform where hundreds of thousands of people were sent to gas chambers is one of those not appropriate ones.

While not the most reverent, notice not all are doing it. Sometimes a person needs a break from all the horrors there, just taking a couple minutes to re center them selves. All mourn in different ways. From one who walks train tracks.

Among over two million visitors most of them are not doing it. We also understand that people react differently to the experience and need 'a break from the horrors'. However there are other ways of doing this. Mourning is possible in a way that is not disrespectful.

We agree that their intention was not to be disrespectful. But we shouldn't just get over it with no reaction. True - visitors can do worse. The whole site is a warning against far more serious things. Yet, we should ask for respect - also when one finds his coping strategy.

Disrespectful behavior towards the victims of the Holocaust. Where were the parents? Where were the carers? 😡😡😡
