Pathetic Bastard

As if what he suffered wasn't bad enough, some asshole vandalized the gravesite of James Byrd Jr.

The gravesite of a black man who was dragged to death in 1998 by three white men was found desecrated Thursday, police said.

An obscenity and racial epithet were carved into a small metal plate on the bottom of the broken tombstone of James Byrd Jr. Byrd's name and birthdate were engraved on the plate.
I guess for some people there really is nothing left that commands respect. Why is it so hard to just let the poor man rest in peace?
