Funny, but fake: https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2019/01/fake-news-cousins-arrested-after-refusing-to-stop-having-sex-during-funeral-ceremony.html
- The fact that people believe this was real shows that even the most basic media literacy is fucking dead.
  Why are people so bad at recognizing obviously fake shit?
- Aww... Thanks for posting the truth, but I'm devastated.
  
  You can make up for it by having sex with your cousin.
- Phew.

The Alabama jokes write themselves

GRAMMA WOULD HAVE WANTED THIS!!!

What the fediverse

They certainly look like stereotypical alabamanians

Ah, a fake article that is a loose excuse to bully people who may have disabilities.
Very cool
- Are you lost?
- Keep up the good fight

- Aw, man!

What in the ass backwards Ricky Bobby done got here

Roll tide!

Judging by their mugshots, they were perpetuating a longstanding family tradition
- Gotta keep it in the family
- Seven generations of uninterrupted fetal alcohol syndrome.

European here. And I'm afraid to ask but morbid curiosity is winning over fear. But... can someone explain me what is went wrong here? My brain shutdown.
- They're closely related
  They were having public sex
  They refused to stop
  It was during a funeral
  The funeral was for their shared grandmother
- Cousins are not supposed to reproduce.
  Having sex at a funeral is usually seen as disrespectful.
  
  usually
- This is a big world, people's customs vary, and I'm not one who expects everyone to follow my moral judgements, but "COUSINS ARRESTED AFTER REFUSING TO STOP HAVING SEX DURING FUNERAL CEREMONY" doesn't throw up any red flags for you?
  Not trying to dunk, more wondering whether I'm missing dry humor or a language barrier.
- Is this sort of thing common in Europe?
  
  Only for royals the commoners have a bit more braincells
  
  I also live in Europe and where I live it's not common
  
  Have you not seen the past European royalty?
- It's fake. Curiosity satiated.
- Alabama has a famous stereotype of people there being very incestuous
- incest at your grandmas funeral
- They are cousins. States in the deep south, such as Alabama, are stereotyped as being very redneck and open to incest. And then stories like this pop up it fits every stereotype.

Saving this thread so I can see all the alabummer roasts
GBO

Grams wanted her funeral to be celebration of life...a lewd, disgusting, cousin-fucking celebration.

Damn prudes never let people have fun!

Baseball, huh?

Yeah! I'm gonna fuck all y'all!

Average Americans
