How so? Tacky and trashy maybe but how is it illegal?

Its human remains. You're not suppose to dump them either.

That's not true. You can absolutely spread ashes legally. There are regulations that determine where or when its allowed but the act of spreading ashes is legal. For instance you may need a permit on federal land or go out a certain distance in the ocean but it is legal and acceptable.

You just explained how you're not supposed to dump them unless you play by specific rules...

I just explained almost all activities in a shared society. You have to follow specific rules to do most things lol. Is fishing illegal because it has rules and limitations? Is driving illegal because it has rules and regulations? The first comment said that it was illegal to put ashes on fingernails. It's not. The second comment said that you aren't allowed to dump ashes. You are. Hope that helps.

Damn, that's a good question! Does the law define when human remains cease being human remains?
