Tourists \'stripping ancient Rome bare\'

[Historylover]

That is indeed horrible...sadly its not just limited to Ancient items. The Fallschirmjager Monument that was erected in Crete after the Germans finally took the Island from the British is regularly defaced and no one seems to care...someone needs to at least buy the durn thing and put it in a museum.

Also here, on Veterans Day abunch of pukes decided to go through Arlington Cemetery and set fire to all the American Flags that friends and family had so carefully placed at each head stone.

While not done by tourists I would definitely say it fits under the same category...vandalism thats what all of these accounts are. All the best, Jon
