If you ask me there is no set way of honouring your dea; there is no law or rule that dictates how you are supposed to show respect.

Having a drink in memory of their departed isn't the issue. What the issue is, is the fact that it's been done at the graveside, music blaring, carry outs lying around, other graves being trampled over, other's headstones being sat on and used as seats. That's the disrespectful part, not that they wish to honour their dead - it's the manner in which they are doing it.
