Discussion 1: What if you got it for free, and you needed transportation but did not have the money to get a vehicle? Is there a way you could paint it up and redecorate it so that no one would figure out what it was? Does everyone even know what this vehicle looks like and what it is used for? Are hearses universal across every nation in the world? Maybe in some places this is not how they transport the dead. Can you imagine a point in time where in the US, cremation becomes so common that hearses stop being made, and everyone forgets what they were even used for? Remember, as some of your peers have pointed out, deviance is socially constructed so it varies by place, time, audience, actor, etc. A question for you or anyone else: can you think of something that may be considered deviant right now in the US, but perhaps to our great grandchildren it will no longer be deviant? And how about vice versa-- some things that were deviant in the past in the US that today we no longer consider deviant? Also, how about material objects that were deviant but now are so obsolete that most people would not know what they were even used for anymore, so they don't bring up the same deviant context they once did?
