In my history class today, Mr.Hess was teaching my classmates and I about the horrific events of the Holocaust. Now I've learned about the Holocaust, and I knew it was terrible, but it didn't really hit me until today how shocking it was. We had to watch an informational movie clip about it. It basically was a silent film with photos of dead Jewish victims from concentration camps. Now I usually have a pretty strong stomach, but this I couldn't handle. Not only were the sites of the bodies revolting, but the fact that human beings, people like you and I, were responsible for the 6 million people who died. And how they treated the bodies, bulldozing them into holes and throwing them into chambers to burn. Really? That's immoral and wrong. I just thought I'd share my revoltsion for humans with you.
I'm sorry if this was depressing. I just had to tell someone about it.
