Why does every thread on this forum become a heated argument?

Albert Kahn was a prolific Detroit architect. Whether he designed every single landmark in Detroit, which would have been odd, or not doesn’t matter. He is well known. He was innovative and a notable Detroiter. Why do those of you against putting a marker up outside his house to honor him feel so strongly on the subject? Why does it matter so much if a plaque is placed honoring a notable life for passersby to see?

It’s definitely time Detroit begins to boast about the accomplishments that have been done within its borders. I see nothing wrong with enlightening a passing pedestrian on the history of the owner of 208 Mack.
