Just so you know it's more than soldiers they disrespect. Living in Kansas I see them quite often. So don't think it's just soldiers they disrespect. They were at my daughters graduation at Kansas University a couple of weeks ago, they will show up at natural disasters like Joplin. You never know about them. As far as an old fashioned *** woopin, yes, that's what they need. But trust me that's what they want you to do and you will spend more than a night in jail. Do they infuriate me? Yes they do. But you have to let it go. Unfortunately they have rights just like the rest of us.

Wow so you guys think we should just grin and bear it because they might sue us or we might face legal repercussions and I should be scared. Thanks for the great advice! Too bad you guys weren't around to tell Sam Adams and the boys at the Boston Tea Party that they could get in trouble for dumping that tea. Maybe we'd have gotten an invite to the wedding in London and would all be bowing to the Queen!

Well strike, Lightnin'. Nothing keeping you from jumping up and doing it, then.

Believe it or not the Media is the biggest part of this problem. I do believe in freedom of the press but why don't the reporters use a little common sense and stop reporting about these low lifes. If they didn't get coverage they would most likely disappear.
