[/qb][/QUOTE]And yet only one of those names I wrote was not a death camp..... The Tian An Men, Redemption Part II, aired 1991, was named in honor of the slaughtered people at the square, so how would Nazi death camps be any different if being named after places where people were slaughtered? [/qb][/QUOTE]The diffrence is that the Square was where a lot of people got slaughtered for standing up to an oppressive regeme. The concentration camps were... [i]atrocities[/i]- not something you want to commemorate with a ship name. Best to leave some things alone- Trek tends to ignore all WWII German battleships as well- even though the German navy was not (directly) culpable in the horrors of the Nazi party. Ship names should be about accomplishment or at least be inspirational- a lone protestor standing up to a tank or example. Besides, maybe Tian An Men square becomes the capital of a democratic China someday... [/QB][/QUOTE]
