Why should they be a Trump supporter?

They are cremated and the ashes cast into a body of water that was of special significance to the deceased during their life. Or some other appropriate place.

I have great respect for David Bowie, as both an original creative genius and a Cultural Icon, I posted things in the main thread about him the morning it was announced that he'd died....and I support Donald Trump.
With me, I can separate Art from Politics.

I'm going to research it later, out of interest. The Salem Witch Trials famous worldwide, so I would imagine there must be some marker at the least.

There is a marker, I just read, but it seems the families removed the bodies and buried them on private property

Thanks, this is interesting. I think it's good that the families moved them. The whole condemned as a Witch in those days was just incredibly vague....I mean at one point almost anything could get you condemned as a Witch.

The Westboro people have a history of lunacy. Regardless of what someone believes, either politically or socially, protesting anyone's funeral is just an incredibly low thing to do, not to mention disrespectful to that persons loved ones.

There is so much ignorance about "witches" on this board. Doesn't matter how often its discussed, there will always be some dunderhead who pretends he knows what he's talking about.
"unhallowed ground"?
Try thinking that through.
Hint: if one does not believe in a "christian" god or devil, why would one believe that ground can be hallowed? Or, for that matter, water holy? Magic smoke? Or any of the rest.

Majority of cemeteries of that era were located near churches, or the land was blessed by clergy.

The question was 'where are the buried' - present tense. Not 'where WERE they buried' - past tense.
Bowie and Westboro are both modern day as well.
Nor did you specify a particular time.
It wasn't until post #8 that the past was mentioned.
