My step daughter is traveling in Europe including one stop in Auschwitz Birkenau. I thought I'd share a couple of the cell phone pictures she sent; they were thought provoking to me. It's a lesson in what social pressure will compel normal people to tolerate and some to deny and why history's lessons are so important.

We should never forget. It is all too easy to give up your rights to someone who wants to excert absolute power in governance. The road it leads down is very dark.

Just looking at that close up as the photos reveal is literally overwhelming.

Brings back memories of my visit to Dachau. The feeling one gets while visiting is not a pleasant one. Especially when seeing the gas chambers and ovens.
