It's a cultural thing. There is a hispanic cemetary down the street from be and I frequently ride through it and look at the graves. They are always well kept and brightly decorated. Seldom do I ride through that someone isn't attending to a family member's plot. I've gotta give the hispanic community credit, there sense of family and family responsibility makes my upbringing seem pretty pathetic in comparison. I seldom see of talk to my family and they are all within 200 miles.

They seem to celebrate the death as well. There are empty and unopened beer cans about the grave. The day I was there it was a cool day. I started to help myself to a cool one, but thought they may have been left there for a family member or friend.
I came back to the cemetery. Some morons had been having target practice. No stones were shot, but their were two wind chimes in a tree and some of the decor off of the graves that were used as target practice. They left their empty .22 boxes there as well as the decor they shot up.
