Serves no purpose for roadside memorials. People are not there and who wants to be reminded that a loved one died there.

Well I dont care if it is a poll or not, it is still ignorant to bring it up, if families want to put something there for a while to remember their loved ones than so be it. Its not hurting anybody and helps them through the mourning process. Have some respect for the dead!
How about having some respect for the living? It is no more ignorant to bring it up than it is for you to complain that it was brought up. I don't want to see them. It is a custom from some European and Hispanic countries. We don't live there; they live here. If I lived in their country, I should respect their customs. They live in this country and, until recently, we do not put up roadside memorials.allan1058 said:

I do not throw trash out of my vehicle window nor from a boat. I respect this world. I live in it and don't treat it as my personal trash dump. I also do not let others throw trash from my vehicle. We put the trash in a bag or the side pockets and clean them out and put the trash in a trash can later. So who is the hypocrite?

It hurts me to see dead stuffed animals and decaying balloons and cheap faded flowers abandoned on the side of the road.
Won't someone think of the children?If you truly respect the dead, honor their memory where they are buried. You don't see people leaving empty 40oz bottles and cans at the hospitals to remember their homies.
Then again, maybe your dead loved ones make you think of roadside trash. :shrug: That's not very respectful to their memory, is it now?
