Non-profit worker who provoked fury with disrespectful Arlington photo tells how she lost her job, can't date and now lives in fear

For almost a year after Lindsey Stone was fired, she refused to leave the house.

Her former employer, Life (Living Independently Forever) dismissed her in 2012 over a picture that a coworker had taken of her giving the finger at Arlington National Cemetery.

The firing of both women came after an ardent online campaign that had flooded Life, which works with 'pretty high-functioning people with learning difficulties,' according to Stone, with emails.

In addition to the firing, it left a digital trail of bitter anger against Stone, including a now-unavailable Facebook page 'Fire Lindsey Stone,' which had than 19,000 Likes at one point.

I heard they had a long series of photos showing them doing the opposite of many signs in their travels. So there wasn’t really any particular animus against vets or the cemetary.

It looks to me like herds on the internet go too far in destroying peoples lives

If you act like a bitch don’t be surprised if you get slapped like a bitch.

Looks like something some dumb kid would do, but not a grown woman. And if it weren’t for the fact that it was meant for our soldiers that gave their all to defend doing stupid crap like that - it would be worth a chuckle.

And while it was stupid of her to do this, it was even stupider of her to get it out on the interwebs.

No American should ever mock or make light of the sacrifices of our dead military. So I can't feel sorry for her, even if this was "just one in a series" of assinine photos.

Well, as long as they disrespected everyone equally crudely and shamelessly, then I guess it’s OK in some degenerate quarters. Bet they really set a positive example for the “challenged” persons in their care and passing children and foreigners.

I can easily see myself doing that kind of thing at IRS Headquarters...and maybe at other places as well.But never at Arlington.

NEVER!

Too bad she already went to the internet before informing her employers and to the parents of those she helps They might’ve understood, but now they’ll be wondering what else she could be hiding.
