Lindsay Stone Flipping Off Unknown Soldier Tomb Goes Viral, Sparks Outrage! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 6568391  Bulgaria11/21/2012 09:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | |
| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 6568391 Bulgaria11/21/2012 09:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Of course Lindsey posted the photo on Facebook because she thought her friends would appreciate the joke. Instead she got a lot of outraged comments. So she tried to difuse the situation by posting an explanation. Whoa whoa whoa... wait. This is just us, being the douchebags that we are, challenging authority in general. Much like the pic posted the night before, of me smoking right next to a no smoking sign. OBVIOUSLY we meant NO disrespect to people that serve or have served our country. And her friends were like, what do you mean, "us douchebags?!?" (Inching away from Lindsey like she just farted.) Lindsey, Lindsey, Lindsey. SIGH. [link to thestir.cafemom.com] |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 3626811  United States11/21/2012 09:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think its funny. Everyone needs to stop being soooo offended over everything. Who cares. If you care about veterans, how about healthcare and social support after they leave the military? How about not sending people to die in war for profits? |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 11803834 United States11/21/2012 09:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't understand the US' military worship, well, actually I do because it's a cornerstone of any fascist nation, but she was flipping off the wrong people. Next time try the elites who can't seem to fill these cemeteries quickly enough the last 70 years. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 21926154 United States11/21/2012 09:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I like how one woman wrote, "Free speech doesn't mean free of consequences..." Actually. Yeah. Yeah it does. The government is literally obligated by law to DEFEND us from any person trying to impose a 'consequence' on us for expressing our views or opinions. Only if her 'speech' financially or physically hurt someone, was false, or was performed on private property where it was not allowed, could she be penalized in any way by anyone. As far as I understand how the law is supposed to work. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28080885 United States11/21/2012 09:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sadly enough, I'm starting to believe that this is the new america. The re-election of BO kinda solidified it for me. Just look at the fucks on this thread that will do anything to try to convince us that it's not wrong.... I don't give a shit what you say... if your mom saw you doing it she'd slap you. If she didn't, I would. |
| Prostetnik User ID: 28208028  Canada11/21/2012 09:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | She is free to do this with out repurcussions, because of the sacrifice of the men she is flipping off. She has learned a very hard lesson about jokes that will be misunderstood. Those involved should forgive her for her ignorance and let her learn it. I am convinced the embarrassment of this will cause her to become a good netizen in future. |

| AmericanJedi User ID: 1503533 United States11/21/2012 09:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The girl acted ignorantly and callously. However, she is just a byproduct of the idiocy of the 'if it feels good, do it' assholes that raised her, and a generation like her. Is what she did the worst thing ever perpetrated on veterans? Or are the lies that lead them to war? I ask, how many of you are feeding and clothing homeless vets? I donate time, money, and material support to vets. So, is her callous asinine disrespect any worse than America's apathy? (GLP aka American Jedi) Listen here you beautiful bitch, I'm about to fuck you up with some truth.
