London July 7, 2005 Memorial

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

On July 7, 2005, a group of mis-informed cowards decided to blow themselves up along with innocent commuters who were just going about their daily lives. Today marks the 12th anniversary of that day, which has only resulted in people needlessly dying. This memorial was erected to remember the 52 people who died in the attacks at Tavistock Square, Edgeware Road, Aldgate, and King's Cross. Each pillar marks the life of the lost person.
