[QUOTE="jimmyrules712, post: 302282, member: 10367"]Things to consider with this. These men metal detected in a public park, not private property, and they dug purposely 5 feet down and disturbed a grave. As long as he doesn't mess with any graves (obviously digging several feet down is stupid) then he's fine. If it wasn't his land then it would be completely different. But he should keep into consideration that there will always be people like cloudsweeper who sincerely believe that this IS morally wrong and for the sake of keeping the peace it may be wise to respect these opinions. In the end though legally he can do it, and it is up to him to decide whether it is unethical or not. Also keep in mind that you are setting yourself up for temptation. I'm sure the men from the article only planned on digging around graves, but ended up falling to the temptation of searching in one. (although I'm not implieing that you are a person would fall to doing this)[/QUOTE]
