Selfies...seriously

Selfies. Pictures taken by themselves. Should they be taken at serious places? Absolutely not! Imagine if you died in the Holocaust, and someone came to visit your grave and they took a selfie sticking their tongues out and holding up a peace sign. How would you feel about that? Probable disrespected, angry, maybe even depressed. Why? That is all I have to say. Selfies are okay and they can be fun to take, but at a memorial or other serious places, they should be saved for another time. Its okay if you take a picture of the sign or simply just for proof of being there. But when they aren’t being taken seriously at a solemn place, i have an issue for that. The purpose of selfies is to save memories or to remember fun times, but to remember a Holocaust camp? No, thats just wrong. When Justin Bieber wrote, “Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber” #neverforget,” all I have to say is, What the heck were you thinking. This is definitely not the time or place to tweet about the Holocaust or take a selfie like Beyoncé. Selfies are okay to be taken with friends at a sleepover, but NOT at a serious place.
