An elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20ish) female protestor offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined. The young protestor put her hand on the old woman's shoulder as a gesture of friendship and in a very soft voice said, "Ma'am, don't you care about the children of Iraq?"

The old woman looked up at her and said, "Honey, my first husband died in France during World War II so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth your country. And if you touch me again, I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it."

I'm glad to report that loud applause broke out among the onlookers and the young protestor was at a total loss for words.

Close enough and thanks...I truly hope it happened and it will encourage others to treat all the protestors with all the respect we hold for cockroaches and self-centered brats who are still going through their terrible twos.

Sounds true. Lots of folks are past fed up with this seditious bunch of lamebrains.

If I had to guess, lots of these kids are probably starting to get nervous about the kind of response they are getting.

Their cowardice has to be beginning to kick in.

It's just like the tyrants we face in Iraq. Oppose them and they fade into the woodwork. Turn on the lights and they scurry away like the cockroaches they are.

Good analogy.
