Sorry Folks, Cemetary's Full

Seeing as there is no room left at the local cemetary, a French Mayor has taken some extraordinary steps to insure people will not use the graveyard when they pass on (I'm not sure that made much sense, but just go with it)--
The mayor of a village in southwest France has threatened residents with severe punishment if they die, because there is no room left in the overcrowded cemetery to bury them.
"all persons not having a plot in the cemetery and wishing to be buried in Sarpourenx are forbidden from dying in the parish."
It added: "Offenders will be severely punished."
I started this post at about 10pm Thursday night, and then went to bed halfway through writing it, before I got to the great one-liner ending I had thought of. Now it's Friday morning and I have no idea what my perfect one-liner was. So, I'll just ned this post and move on to something else.

Don't die or else
