Lots of suggestions for severe punishments being thrown out here. But if you really want to impose a penalty that will get their attention, take away their I-phones for 5 years or so.

In the USA, people with dark skin and women are treated very differently today by a majority of the population than they were even in 1970 for instance.

People not following your rules according to manners and respect does not indicate a lack of manners or respect it is just that they are adhering to a different set of rules than you are, even hardcore gangs such as MS-13, have rules in regards to manners and respect, but their rules are probably a little bit than yours are.

If you see somebody assaulting a senior citizen then please, if you're able do something to stop the attack, but this is not really the same thing as being silly in a place where silliness is apparently banned.
So, you enjoy having a picnic in a cemetery on a murder victim's grave? I mean, why not? It's just being "silly"...
