I’ll address this like I would small children.
Whether a small child or a dog, if they can remain in “their place” and behave, then I have no problem at all with them being there.
People walk in with all manner of things on their shoes. It’s a fact of life. People drive in from a farm out of town. Is anyone thinking feces doesn’t make it on to the floor? If something drops, don’t eat it. Don’t touch it with your skin. Pick it up with a napkin, and discard it.
To my way of thinking, this woman was more anti-military than anything else. I’m sorry for her loss, if she was telling the truth. I don’t think her behavior represented his memory well at all.
Why do people have to be such massive jerks in public?
“”if she was telling the truth””
I for one do not believe her for one minute. She should have been taken out and - well, I can’t finish the sentence!
Anyway, it would be doing the world a favor but sad to say, there are millions more to take her place. Is it really impossible for them to behave themselves? They don’t all behave that way but too many do.
“Why do people have to be such massive jerks in public?”
Because they have been allowed to. It’s a power thing.
