Cemetery Trampled During Tuesday (Democrat) Caucus
KDFW TV ^ | 3-5-2008 | Staff

FLOWER MOUND, Texas -- The cemetery next to the Flower Mound Presbyterian Church was a peaceful, well-kept place until Tuesday night. An overflow of voters trying to join the caucus next door ended up leaving muddy tire tracks through the cemetery. One vehicle's tire actually got stuck in a recently filled grave.

Many voters parked on the shoulder of a gravel road winding through the cemetery, right next door to the church where the voting was taking place. One witness says motorists either didn't notice -- or didn't care -- they were parking just a few feet from buried bodies.

To make matters worse, recent rains left the ground soft, and the tires kicked up plenty of mud. Carved angels, flowers, mementos and other decorations on some of the graves were splattered with grit and dirt clods.

Francis Darroca, a Flower Mound resident whose son is buried in the cemetery, was at the church Tuesday night and said the people who were parking there had no respect for the cemetery.

"This is horrific," he said, looking at the fresh tire tracks. "I can't imagine people have total disregard. I know people are better than that."

I've taken my kids to this cemetary to place flags on Memorial Day. There's a lot of WWI and WWII veterans resting there.

I would say it's virtually impossible to miss the graves. Plus, if you're going to park on the "grass," there's a large area west of the church without any graves. Click here to see an aerial view of it. The only thing I can conclude is they didn't care.

They probably saw the graves and said to themselves “this must be the line to vote Democrat”.

That’s the ultimate insult: to die, get buried, and then get run over by a Democrat.

No, people AREN'T better than that. How do you think we've ended up with Bill Clinton and George W. Bush as presidents for the last decade and a half? And Hillary as a major contender for 2008? Have you checked out what's on TV lately? What's on video-game screens? What's on the internet? This is Paris Hilton-Britney Spears America. We'll park where we damn well please, thank you. Just die somewhere else, and when you do remember to vote Democrat for eternity, so America can continue its downward spiral.

It’s sad that the Dems no longer have respect for the very folks who voted them in across the country...

Democrats make me sick. Of course they didn’t care. They were only concerned with their god, politics. “I might have tore up some graves but I voted for Obama!” Just sickening!

Last summer I stopped at the cemetery where my husband is buried I noticed horse droppings on the drive and in the grass. While I was still there someone came riding down the gravel road next to the cemetery and he started cutting across it. He stopped when he first saw me then continued. I used words on him I didn’t even know I knew.

Found the stable where the horse was boarded and talked to the manager. He put a stop to it.

No respect for anything any more.

Maybe it was the occupants of the cemetery getting up and going over to vote. This was the Democratic caucus, you know.

Coming from the party of death, this is no surprise.

Sounds like between now and November, Denton County will be looking for a new polling place. This disrespect is inexcusable and the party should immediately offer to have the topsoil and sod repaired. I’ll be shocked if the Dems actually *do* make that offer, but that’s what they owe to the community of Flower Mound... along with a public apology.

He now knows what comprises the Democrat Party.

They have no intelligence, no principles, bad morals, bad character, no respect for either themselves, others, or customs.

The Democrat Party leaders’ sole quest is power. To obtain it there is nn line they will not cross.

The Democrat electorate’s goal in life is to be cared for from the cradle to the grave for free by the government. Their sole in life is to live off the blood, sweat, and work of others.

Unfortunately for the Country, their numbers are growing and the “others” numbers are shrinking.

Forty million mutilated and murdered babies attest to that.

They have no respect for life.

They have no respect for the dead.

They have no self respect.

They have no respect for rules or laws.

They have no respect for their country.

Their guiding principle is ME, ME, ME, ME.

Thanks for making my morning!
