Default What Does a Cemetery and Murder have in common?

Both require a body!

The Supreme Court of Virginia split 4-3 today on the issue of just what constitutes a cemetery. In a case from Rockingham County, the lower court and the Supreme Court majority held that a site can’t be a cemetery without the burial of a dead body.
I'm curious what would happen if they stopped burying bodies in a cemetery, and all the bodies decompose, does that mean it's no longer a cemetery?


edit: oh for fata sakes, can one of the mods most this to the OT board? Thanks

That's weird. How do you start a new cemetary in Rockingham County? Bury someone first, claim status later?

They should just stop with the whole cemetery thing already. Its a pretty big waste of space.

But then what would the city of Edmonton do with the bodies?

Same with golf courses...Wait, that's a brilliant solution - bury the dead on golf courses.
