The last time I was there was pre 9/11 and I remember being able to walk around, but ive always been an ask forgiveness vs permission kind of guy ;-)

I think this falls into the fallacy of mood affiliation. You love and trust moonbats -- of course they weren't trying to be offensive. This just in: middle fingers are our most offensive gesture. I hope that someday these girls regret their actions and not just the consequences.

Maybe if you didn't have a stick shoved so far up your ass, you wouldn't let things like this bother you. But that's par for the course coming from you.

But your right....it has everything to do with whether I served or not (rolls eyes). Thank God only those who serve can only be outraged by this.

Keep living in your fantasy world. It's really telling when your position is more extreme than CP's. Your position as LR kook is almost complete.

Maybe he, like others, are sick of the left defending the actions of their own no matter how trivial, and no matter how serious.

It could be an offensive picture like above, or it could the rape of a girl (Roman Polanski) it does not matter, the left always gives their own a pass, ALWAYS.

You guys are truly fucking insane, hard wired like useful idiots, defending every action with one fucking lame ass excuse after excuse.

And finally if you have ever been to Arlington Cemetery you know that it IS NOT the type of place one fucks around in.

I took hundreds of photos when I was there, including this one:

You are like the boy who called wolf. You get so outraged over everything that it has no meaning any more.

The fuck? Not only did you find some picture of someone being a disrespectful dumbass, you then assumed they were liberal, assumed that all liberals think the same, then brought up a guy who raped a 13 year old to show it happens all the time? Grow the fuck up, idiot.

Agreed.

CP--Do you realize that YOU posted the picture and YOU started a thread. If it is so disrespectful than why are YOU continuing to post it and have it talked about? Maybe it's just me, but if I was outraged/offended by a photo, I would never put it up on facebook, slowtwitch or any forum. I would want it to go away so that it doesn't anger me or anyone else. And if I did, it would be to have a constructive conversation about it. Not point fingers or place blame.

Yeah right, and when anyone says, "Retard, Faggot, N*&%$*&, Gay, Squaw", etc, the left just brushes it aside.

.

You do not have to serve to have respect for those who have -- or even more so, for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. But, you have no respect. None. You are a little twit who takes what he has for granted w/o any consideration for who/what protects those rights.

Who said outrage? Go back and read my post and show me where I show any amount of outrage. I may have a stick up my ass, but, you have your head placed firmed up yours. It is simply incredible.

You are quickly surpassing YaHey as the LR Village Idiot. Congratulation. Well played, sir. Well played.

Well, according to Trispoke, if that person is just trying to be funny, then it is no big deal. If anyone reads more into it, well, that is their problem. What an asshat.

Let's say you are at the funeral of a loved one, and somebody decides that this is a good time to make jokes or be funny. Would you find that disrespectful?

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

If you have visited the Tomb of the Unknown, you'd probably see this as a 'bigger deal'. You do have to hike up a hill for a reasonable distance past thousands of headstones. There is absolutely no doubt, as you make the trip, that you are going to a special part of the cemetery. When you get there, there is a guard pacing back and forth in front of the Tomb and you look out over the thousands of graves you just walked past. People don't talk, except in very low tones. Most just sit on the steps letting it all sink in. Many weep.

I escorted a group of over 200 fifth grade kids there two years ago and I was worried about their ability to respect the place and the symbolism. Not the slightest problem. Even they got it, including the ADD kid I was chaperoning. Now, I have never served, but both of my parents did. However, I couldn't stop some tears from falling when Taps was played at the changing of the guard. If you have just the slightest appreciation for loss of life, this place will make you feel it.

This isn't a place for liberals or conservatives to express personal agendas or opinions. It is a place that is intended to remind us of the sacrifices that have been made by all sorts of people in order for us to enjoy the rights that we have. The graves there contain liberals and conservatives.

I find it almost impossible to comprehend that people would hike all of the way up to the Tomb without a reason. 99.9% of the visitors want to pay their respects. It is clear that these two women went up there with the intention of disrespecting the place and they hiked all of the way up there to do it. Seems bizarre. You would have to be a pretty self centered and cold hearted person to pose for pictures like those after you got there. If I was their employer, I would give them a chance to explain their motives, but I doubt there is any way they could explain away the pics. I'd almost surely fire both of them whether I was a liberal or conservative.

FWIW,
Greg

"I really wish you would post more often. You always have some good stuff to say. I copied it below just in case someone missed it." BarryP to Chainpin on 10/21/06

you are so full of shit that it's funny. Yep, I have no respect. That's me...how in the world did the all-knowing JSA figure that out? I forgot that we are supposed to bow down to you and your infinite wisdom. You aren't worth wasting any energy on. I am done with you.

Totally depends. You have never cracked a joke at a funeral? I have been to plenty of funerals where the crowd was rolling with laughter. I have an uncle that is always trying to get someone to pull his finger...funerals, weddings, etc. I don't see it as disrespectful. Sometimes it is ill timed.

In some instances, the joke could be in poor taste (as I believe the picture is). The point here is that, IMO, some people are reading way too much into it. I (you know, my personal beliefs....which according to some, I should thank others for being able to even have) believe 100% that she was trying to be funny in regards to the language on the sign. Had the sign been in a bathroom, church, side of the road, it would have gotten the same response out of her. But people are upset about WHERE it occurred. I get it. Not the place to do that (note, I never defended her). But to extrapolate it to mean that she has no respect for armed services, etc....is reading too much into it. She was trying to be funny....it failed big time. And now she is suffering the consequences, which I don't really have an issue with.

Well, admitting you are an ass-hat is half way towards recovery. Perhaps there is hope for you yet. But, I won't hold my breath ...

"But to extrapolate it to mean that she has no respect for armed services, etc....is reading too much into it."

My guess is that the women didn't bother to put enough thought into what they were doing to make a conscious decision about respect or disrespect. To act so thoughtlessly is disrespectful in itself, especially given their location. It's not like they didn't know they were in a place where they ought to pay more attention to their actions.

I'm sure that if you had asked them they day before the shot was taken, they would say they had great respect for the armed services. However, respect is demonstrated through actions, not just words.

"But to extrapolate it to mean that she has no respect for armed services, etc....is reading too much into it."

Well, she took the trouble to get herself to the most famous MILITARY graveyard in the world and then hiked about 3/4 to a mile up a hill to a specially designated area where the Tomb of the Unknown SOLDIER is located that is guarded 24/7/365 by a living SOLDIER in full dress UNIFORM with a rifle. It sure looks like she had a very clear agenda to me and it sure looks like it was very closely associated with expressing her feelings toward the armed services. I don't see how anyone could view this in any other way. Can I suggest you take a moment to read my earlier post about this?

If, as you said, she could have found "Quiet Please" signs in all sorts of other places, then why didn't she take this ridiculous picture at one of those places? Would have been a whole lot easier than the trouble of going to Arlington. I understand your giving her the benefit of doubt, but there just isn't much to doubt here.
