I thought they were going to say the upsetting thing inside the locket was the Confederate flag.

Oh can’t have a Confederate flag, how upsetting it would be to see one for those up in VT.

So everything is “upsetting” or “unsettling.” We have become a nation of pansies. Live with it, get over it, return it or just throw it away. Why must everything be ultimately reconciled emotionally? Is nothing ever just accepted and dealt with? The left further wussifies our culture, ultimately forcing everyone to feel instead of think or reason. Enough, please, enough.

I found an urn once, I called the mortuary that was on the label and he called the family and they paid for shipping home.

It was a young man whose sister had the ashes and then ended up in jail and a roommate or someone just stuck it on the curb by our church.

Wussification has purpose. So all under its spell will accept mark when it is time. Rather switch than fight. Switch to tolerance of unspeakable evils. Prophecy is coming faster each day.

There’s a space craft that just flew by Pluto, carrying an ounce of the remains of the astronomer that discovered it.

It’s sort of like finding a stray dog or cat .... you do your best to do the right thing.

“Can you describe the ashes?”

Personally, if I found that and couldn’t find the legit owner, I would take it with me to the beach next time and throw it in the ocean. Would anyone, who wished to be cremated, complain if they were poured in the ocean?

The caveat learned....make sure you have your final wishes stated in a will.
