Vandals are compounding the grief of a Tri-state soldier's family.
Not even 24-hours after Private First Class Tim Hines's wife and family said goodbye at his funeral, American flags that had adorned their Fairfield yard were piled beneath a car and burned....

I think Mr Bob Kramer has just outed himself as one of the perps.

The jokers that did this are probably scoping out the internet getting a thrill out of the reaction.....

Does anyone really believe that this incident was just mindless vandalism and not some liberal losers trying to make a statement? No, but it's the politically correct thing to do or say.
Like I said, even if they catch these guys, they won't even get a slap on the wrist.

Wouldn't this constitute a hate crime? Mandatory 8 years in jail?
I hope some locals find the little asses and administer their own form of justice, because the courts damn sure won't.

Apparently the neighbors feel that way. They live there, they know the problems. I find it highly dubious that there's rogue band of liberals looking to disgrace the flag and piss on the country. I agree with the neighbor, a bunch of alcoholic kids looking to start trouble.
But then again, knee-jerk reactions are not just the domain of liberals.

You should have been in EOD in the 60's and 70's.

This is the pot-smoking, Commie Left working their "another Vietnam" gig. These maggots exhibited this same sicko behavior during the Vietnam War. They learn these antics from their Marxist Maggot professors in our prostitutions of higher learning. They then go out and pull this kind of crap for "extra credit" and a few joints. These maggots are uneducated, brainwashed lowlife scum.

"Catch 'em and turn 'em over to me." Like everyone else, you exhibit an inate sense of right and wrong and justice. From where did everyone get those ideas?

I think that Mr. Kramer is probably a pillar of the community considering his measured response. Drunk kids say I (unless you live in the community and have some special insight. I simply remember how stupid I was as a dumb-ass teenager).

Not only is it Heavily GOP, it is one of the more reliably conservative areas in the entirity of Ohio..... It's also a suburb with spoiled rich kids used to getting their way, with their parents covering things up for them.
5:30 a.m. is a bit late/early for adolescent pranks, though.

If we didn't have the more-on.org crowd and the DUmmies saying the things they say about our soldiers, I would be willing to give that view a little credibility. However, having seen some what the Left can do and say, no-can-do.

Evil. Pure, unadulterated evil.
To: GoBucks2002
What makes you think it would be some rich kids. Only affluent kids vandalize things? That really sounded like a statement that some lib would make. I don't mean to bust your chops, but people who have money aren't all bad people just like poor people are not always bad. By the looks of the neighborhood I would assume this was a working class area full of middle class people. If it were a Lexus on fire I would say you have a point.

"I'm hoping this is just a random act of stupidity," said Chief Mike Dickey, of the Fairfield police department, "but we're going to keep an eye on things here and act accordingly."
Instead of keeping an eye on things I would suggest actually expending an effort to get the arsonists in prison.

If for some reason their insurance doesnt cover this. Maybe we should send her some compensation money? Is there a way to get her the money?
Thank you.

***Hines' sister-in-law woke up to hear her car alarm around 5:30 a.m. and saw her car on fire. ***
Hopefully, somebody saw the perps, or the car they were driving, or anything that will help the police find them. Ohio is EDT, and it starts getting light out about a half hour before the sun came up at one minute to six this morning.

You haven't been a teenager for awhile. These hyper-sugared, alcoholic, drug addled upper middle class (by proxy, through their parents) tall-enough-and-potty-trained-just-a-enough-not-to-be-in-diapers teens know how to
PAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Especially when their stupid parents abdicate their parental responsibilities.

I can't imagine that people who respect the flag would pile them up and burn them, even if they were drunk out of their minds.
Alcohol brings out people's true nature, it doesn't usually make them do something they wouldn't otherwise be prone to do, but for inhibition.
