Maybe this is where the phrase “up to your ass in alligators” originated.

Is that a glass half-full or half-empty...or just a burial ground that is a cut above...

It’s likely just a practical matter, they didn’t have to dig that large of a hole to fit a body in that way. They didn’t have steel shovels and frozen ground can be extremely tough to dig.

Since not all of them are "sliced", my best guess is that this site was dug up before with something that would "slice"....Are all the limbs present??

I don't think they're considering a lot of different options...so there can never be a conclusion....but it will generate GRANT MONEY forever!!!

It was to prevent them from voting.

...they sliced their dead in half ...

So that doubles their votes for Obama then, right?

Practical, really. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, they won’t be able to walk.

I guess they reached their cut-off date and they didn’t want to go to waist...
