Well the discussion here
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=736526&mesg_id=736526brought to my mind the encounter the other day, outside of star bucks.
You see this very well dressed and dapper looking young man was calling this fella, who did not look that well dressed or completely here, coward. The one who was not completely here was a Vet of Gulf War II, and his PTSD was so bad that he truly cannot handle getting a job right now.
Now our freeper called this guy a coward since he will NOT go back o'ver there (he was discharged by the way on medical grounds).
The Vet rose his voice and fisted his hands... at that point I got in the middle and told our dapper looking young man to get the F out of here, for I realized what was going on. He said, "Damn it you can't see he is a coward?"
Damn it I can see you don't get it, now go get your damn latte and get the hell out of here! Vet in the meantime was bout ready to explode
Cop showed up, and I expected cop to end up arresting somebody... cop got a measure of what was going on and told the young man to vacate the premises... young man looked cop in the eye and said, damn it what is wrong, you defend liberals? Cop put hand on Asp, and then told him, "I will count to three and you are going to be gone... by the way go see the recruiter."
What at this point I classified as a freeper left and we spent the next ten minutes trying to asses what do to with this guy.... and cop told me... "you know we need a damn draft so the real cowards who don't get it can get a taste of their own medicine." I and vet looked a tad confused, "My nephew is over there with the Third ID." We both nodded... I also got vet some food and lend ed an ear for a good two hours.... but both Rangel and the Cop are right... oh and in case you wonder, I witnessed a Right Winger "spitting" on a vet. I am sure in 20 years we will hear this same story and how the damn lib'ruls spit on this vet.
