Ya, count me in the ok with the picture being posted camp. I find what she did to be pretty disrespectful.
It may not be logical to burry dead people in the ground, but there is a lot of things that is illogical in this world (like religion). However, we don't go around disrespecting others beliefs and traditions because we have something called common decency. This woman showed none. Even cleaning it up, it is the mere act of defecating that is enough. In our culture (I mean west European mainstream NA culture) a human defecating on a grave is considered a massive sign of disrespect.
Look at the drunk kids who peed on war memorials, people were by and large outraged. Why? It's just a hunk of metal, it's not a real soldier. No it's symbolism, and ya it's not logical but it is tradition and norm of our culture to respect such things. No different with a grave site. Even worse it's a dog which is an animal, a sub human. I really do not get the shrugs here.
People in a graveyard are there because they are there, logic or not. They were put there to be respected eternally logically or not. I think all of us know that it is what a graveyard is for. This lady should know that too. To me this is like parking in a handicap spot, she knows she was doing wrong and did it anyways. It may not be illegal, but it is a super d**che move, and I have little sympathy for her pic being posted.
