9/11 Burial Arguments

Although September 9th, 2001 was a long time ago to some of us there are still many issues being dealt with regarding the event today. For instance the issue of the final burial of the unidentified bodies from Ground Zero is something that is still being argued over. The original plan is to create a memorial for the day in a museum and to bury the dead there within the museum but almost in a basement of sorts. There is a lot of dispute among the planners of this and the families that lost loved ones to the attack. They want a proper burial for the remains and find it very demeaning for the dead and for their families wherever and whoever they may be. But some people are not opposed to it as they believe that it would be the same as a burial just in a building and it would be at a memorial towards them. I believe that the bodies should get a proper burial regardless of who they are and whether or not they have been identified. Putting them in a museum where anyone can have access to the room would be in some ways disrespecting and ruse towards the families that lost loved ones on the September day.
