(30 Oct 2018) One stone and one white rosebud for each victim. President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump paid solemn tribute Tuesday to each of the 11 people slain in the worst instance of anti-Semitic violence in American history. As the Trumps placed their remembrances outside the Tree of Life synagogue, protesters nearby shouted that the president was not welcome. "I think the president's visit was very much a distraction. I think it detracts from our ability as a neighborhood to go and mourn," said Kathy Wolfe who lives across the street from the Synagogue.
