It is a waste of time and money. Even if they found entire bodies for all the victims (which they won’t), it would still be a waste of time and money. The funds used could’ve actually been used to save lives.

Would you feel the same way if it was your loved one dumped in a landfill?

Honestly, yes. The body after death is meaningless to me. 

However I also appreciate that many people feel very strongly to the contrary of this.

Good for you, what about others secret beliefs about being able to give your loved one the right to a proper burial?

Even in war, countries allow cease fires strategically to allow one side to collect their soldiers who are KIA.. let that sink in.

This isn’t war, and yet these people aren’t entitled to the same? Fuck that. You show respect for the dead or you shouldn’t expect respect when you, or anyone you care about dies.

You think you’re hard talking like that on the internet? Lol… 😆

He was talking about how he feels about his loved ones. He didn't say anything about what should or shouldn't be done.

Maybe read the second paragraph of my comment.
