Frat boys spit on wounded vet, urinate on American flag

Investigations have been launched at two universities over accusations that fraternity members taunted wounded war heroes, urinated on an American flag, and spit on a wounded veteran and his service dog in Panama City Beach, Florida.

The April 17 incident, involving Zeta Beta Tau fraternity members from the University of Florida and Emory University, has infuriated residents of Panama City.

[Snip]

... the fraternity members were staying in the same resort [as 100 combat-wounded warriors and their spouses]– and caused a night of mayhem. The college kids made derogatory comments about the warriors’ wives, threw items off balconies and desecrated an American flag.

She also said one of the warriors and his service dog were spit on.

The drunken frat boys upset a few people ... but fortunately, they didn't use the N-word ... or libtards in college administration and the media would have been really mad ... and this would have made national news ... and they would have expelled the frat boys from school, kicked them off campus, and closed their frat house!

I went by the Jewish house. All the answers on our Psych test were wrong.

Well, it’s seems to be what to expect from a bunch of elite frat-boys, sadly enough.

Let’s see what happens if they’d do the same thing to a mussie and the Palestinian flag ...

Yyyyesssss...now there would be some guts. I wish I had the money to issue a challenge to these cowards. $10,000 to the first group of three who does this in front of whatever Muslim contingent is currently attending that school.

Probably enough for the ones from Emory to graduate with full honors.

that is about par for the Frat Boy’s course. I would expect no different conduct from them. Hopefully some third world occupying soldier will use them [Frat Boys] for bayonet practice some day.

Makes me wonder if they were going for the “Group most likely to have enraged patriots beat the living hell out of” nomination for their school.

From the article:

Zeta Beta Tau International confirmed that three members of the University of Florida chapter have been expelled from the fraternity and both university chapters have suspended all activities.

“There is no doubt that some of our members engaged in ugly and unacceptable behavior,” Executive Director Laurence Bolotin wrote in a statement. “Their actions have no place in ZBT or anywhere, and they will not be tolerated.”

Why did not the upset people do something about it then? I guarantee you that if I witnessed something like this, I would be in the County Jail.

Apparently, the American people haven’t changed very much.

When I returned from Vietnam in 1972 and the flight landed at Travis Air Force Base, CA, I was advised to change out of my uniform and put on civilian clothing to avoid being attacked by the American people when I entered San Francisco.

I wasn’t at all surprised when a few decades later these same people elected a Marxist-Communist as President of what was once my country.

“Emory University, on the other hand, said it cannot confirm that any of their students were involved in the despicable behavior.”

Atlanta? No surprise there. Home of one of the nation’s largest school cheating scandals. The authorities are still putting educators in jail for that.

Boozed up, but they should still get their asses kicked.
