Boston Bombing Suspect Denied Burial?

Here's the article I was reading after I saw this on CNN.

I don't see why all the cemeterys there refuse to accept his remains. The uncle spent hours preparing his body. Give the family the right to bury their loved ones in peace. Honestly I think it's insane since they have no right to deny them, when there are worst people, Osama was one and he didn't get denied a burial.

Now then again, we could say it's a good thing because someone would prolly do something rude to the grave.

He's already dead...

The problem is individuals that think his body signifies something more than a carcass.


Americans are fucking idiots tbh. Where a body is put underground shouldn't be an emotional event LOL.

Everyone should have the right to a burial.

They gave Bin Laden a special burial, let someone do all that religious stuff on him and wrapped him in w/e

Cemeteries are private property. They can do whatever the hell they want. Think of it in terms of their future clientele...

"Grandpa, how about this place for grandma's grave? Oh how nice, your two rows away from the nice young man who bombed Boston in 2013."


Osama's burial involved dumping his evil ass off of a ship in international waters. There's no one who cam say no, since no one owns it.

You do realize I am American...and apparently so are you.

Ok so if that's the concept, that's like me saying "OH don't bury me next to that black kid down the street, or the jew at the bank or the hispanic guy that does my mechanical work or the German guy that served in WW2." It's a dumb thing to say, Do you really think they are gonna say "well you'd be buried by that guy that bombed Boston?" You can't be so narrow minded to stereotype the guy. He was muslim, not American, they do different burials and this is just a bad move by Boston.
Also, give the family a break, the uncle is the only one who's been able to prepare the body, and now they refuse to allow him to bury him in the area.

I agree with the cemetery proprietors. I wouldn't want him in my cemetery because I wouldn't want to draw vandalism, and I wouldn't want to draw any terrorist-related attention to my establishment.

I'd like to see him buried as Osama was. At the bottom of the ocean, not for any spiteful reason, just that it's the safest place to put the remains of extremists, lest they become icons and draw the attention of the like-minded to any specific (or populated) area.

For the record, Bin Laden's burial was traditional, it wasn't a proper burial compared to the modern western world. His tradition is that within 24 hours of death the body is chromated and then the ashes scattered at sea, I dont know how the sea could deny burial ^^

can someone explain to me why funerals are such a big freakin deal nowadays?? cremate yourself and throw the ashes over the ocean or some shit. Jeeze you already passed, i understand if your greek then maybe put two gold coins on your eyes and give yourself a proper burial. ^.^

It's a risk for the cemetery owners. Not necessarily that they are trying to be disrespectful

This.
It's disrespectful to the victims family, to have him buried in the town he made such a problem in.

I don't think killing American Citizens and injuring many deserves any right for a proper burial. He should be burned

 

They gave Osama a special burial because of his religion, it literally DEMANDED he be buried that way or it would be extremely disrespectful to their people/gods (Or something along those lines.. I didn't read into it because I really don't care)

I'm glad they denied his burial, he should be thrown to the wolves for doing what he did, he's dead anyways what do people care what happens to his body.

 

I don't think he should be buried, his grave will likely get vandalised and will cause the family more stress.
I'm not saying he shouldn't be buried evaluate he's evil or anything, but dr the reason above.

Everyone should have the write to a burial, No matter what they did in their life, they still had people that cared about them. Also, They are dead... It is just there body that is being buried now.

The Federal Civil Rights Act guarantees all people the right to "full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, and accommodations of any place of public accommodation, without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin." However, many of the 50 states have adopted a Unruh Civil Rights Act declaring owners of these establishments do have the rights to deny service to specific individuals that fall under the birthed deviations of the state.

If these cemeteries were owned by the state it would be a different situation. There is a reason state's do not own ever establishment in their jurisdiction, this is one of these reasons. The state doesn't want to claim responsibility for any lawsuit a individual deems necessary to file against these business owners.

Although it may not be moral to deny someone a proper burial, i don't think any of you would want someone who has killed members of your family in the same religious and peaceful place of eternal rest forever.

How does one cremate theirself and then throw their ashes over the ocean? Even in the ocean seems like an impossible challenge considering, you know, you are the ashes.

Ontopic: I fully understand the denial and he should probably indeed be cremated and thrown practically anywhere, as long as people don't know it.

Just like the lady said in the interview, how much more can you punish Tamerlan? He is already dead (and possibly innocent)

Not all of us Americans share the same beliefs... just put the man to rest

I hope you're not saying that to justify what he has possibly done.

Everyone has the right to a burial.

However private cemeteries have every right to deny anyone they wish to be buried in their cemetery.
