I know when someone dies their soul is in heaven with God. But still why go to a grave yard and leave your trash. I was pretty mad. If I see someone leaveing their trash in the grave yard I would speak up. I don't like litter bugs anyway but that is disrespectful don't you think it is disrespectful?

I agree..though most would show respect for the place,there are those who don't..Here in Ireland,at locations where a fatal car crash occurred,relatives and friends will leave small crosses and flowers to mark the spot..One such is beside my workplace,where a collision forced a van off the road,the impact killing a passenger at the scene..passing the spot yesterday I saw sixpack wrapping and other drink related trash dumped nearby..it's a busy treelined rural road with no footpath ,so somebody driving past must have thrown it out the window either randomly or deliberately...as you say,no respect...

Hi ShepherdSpy. We do the same here in the USA. They do the same thing here no respect by some down right rude people. I hope people that litter get caught and pay for the litter.

I wish people would just stop littering all together. I can't believe how lazy some people can be. If they throw trash and miss the trash can they just leave it. I just don't understand. Best Wishes!

I hate litter bugs. It bothers me that there are people so lazy that they can't even clean out their own vehicle at home or a station where they don't throw out litter for everyone to see. I don't understand it either. We don't throw out nothing on the side of the road. If we have trash we bring it home with us......LOL

Hi Sswallace. We would rather pick up after ourselves then to leave it to someone else too. Good for you my friend.

We bring ours home also. I don't really think anyone needs to be picking up after us. It's to bad the rest of the world didn't feel the same way.

Yes I feel that is very disrespectful as well. People go to the graveyards to feel closer to their loved ones who have passed. They dont want to see garbage laying all over. If I went to a graveyard and found garbage laying around I would pick it up and try to find a garbage to put it in. The cemetary down the street from me I do not think has a garbage can but they have signs that say anything you bring in you take with you meaning if you bring a soda bottle you do not leave it there when you are done with it. People who litter really make me angry. I had a dream last night about crews along the side of the road cleaning up litter. I was happy in the dream to see how much nicer the area looked without all the garbage laying around. I hate when I drive and see all over the place all the garbage. If I had free time and no kids with me I would stop and bag up all the garbage.

Hi Shaggin. It is disrespectful. I wonder if they would do it if their mother or dad was buried there. We have all kinds of little grave yards. We go there because we feel at peace there while we are sitting there eating our lunch. I wish they would get stricter on litter bugs. When we stop at a grave yard we pick up things we see lying around. I get just plain sick at people that show no respect to those that have passed on! Better not let me see them do it!

That is very disrespectful! They wouldn't like it if when they die someone does that to the place they are buried. But some people just don't think. It is sad the way the world is turning out. He/she should be ashamed of themselves!

Hi Zukichucha and welcome to my lot. They wouldn't like it if I caught them throwing trash in a grave yard. It is just plain tacky. But they would get a good piece of my thoughts if I ever do catch someone trashing a grave yard.
