When Saprina Roark went to visit her family’s Princewick, Virginia graveyard shortly after Christmas, her great-great-grandfather, a Confederate Civil War veteran, was missing.
Someone had dug up the veteran’s grave and left only his skull behind in the remote, wooded cemetery – a half mile from the nearest residence. Roark’s kin, former 36th Infantry private Thomas Meadows, resided in one of the oldest graves at the site, which is now the subject of a criminal investigation to track down the grave robbers, the Register-Herald reports.

widespread vandalism of Confederate memorials
and cemeteries, could only be stopped
by severely beating or killing
the perpetrators.
Without question,"Vandals dig up Confederate soldier’s grave, steal body from VA cemetery" proves it is the
only way to bring these despicable crimes to
an immediate halt.
If somebody gets caught doing this type of stuff, they'll probably wish 30 lashes was the only thing they got.

Put them back in and cover them up.
DeleteNah, put a bag of coal at their feet, set it alight, then bury 'em up to their chin; that way it leaves a warning to the next would-be, while the coal slowly burns for a day or two.
DeleteExcellent idea
DeleteYes, that beats Death by 1,000 Cuts even! :)
DeleteI agree. That beats nailing them to a lighter pine stump and setting it on fire. It's just easier to find a stump around here, than the bag of coal. :)
DeleteThe possums will have a fine feast, too.
