    Feels wrong editing the grave of a soldier to craft a political message.

    But that’s one of the many reasons why you don’t take political photos at the graves of soldiers.

    • yes, it does, and at the same time, no it doesn’t.

      But that’s why it is forbidden to make photos there

      And editing this, shaming the family and Trump, is the only way to keep up the social norm of not accepting this.

      Anyways, why it doesn’t:

      He edited him out of it. He took him out of this absurd and disrespectful situation. I feel like he actually did him a service by taking her out of the equation here.

      Edit: The Marine was male not female I just noticed. Was absolutely sure I saw another meme where there was a female name on the grave, but whatever, it felt right to correct it.

    I’m going to stay on the side of “shouldn’t use Arlington as a political tool,” regardless of what side it comes from.

    It will not rest in peace: it may seem defeated for a while but come back with vengeance after some time.

    Little girl in the pink shirt has the correct expression regarding the future the people around her are trying to make for her.

    Should add something to all the grave stones he posed with. “Supreme Court”, “Rule of Law”, “The Constitution”, “Democracy”, etc.
