"No woman would have done the things Jane has done, thus she is exempt from woman status. Actions have consequences."

I'm not persuaded by what you say. This guy could have spoken out to her, read a statement to her, whatever. But in my experience, men who spit on people (let alone on women) have serious mental issues. I'll simply ask, would John Wayne ever have spit on anyone? Even Tokyo Rose? I doubt it.

Unfortunately, conservatives have been afraid, unwilling, etc., to fight the left with their own tactics, taking a self-imposed higher, moral position.

Methinks the left has been laughing at this for years. Perhaps aggression towards them is the only way they'll learn their aggression towards conservatives was wrong. Generally, Libs aren't too smart, sometimes they have to feel the same thing they dish out before they can empathize. (Let's not hold our breath, however)

Still think if we shut up & go away, the left will only get stronger. Remember, their control is only now waning since the late 60's...nearly 40 years of social, media, academia & judicial activism....that sucks....no time to act like weenies now.

Please spare me. Spitting is nothing compared to what should be done to her. Since when is a movie star like John Wayne the moral example of how we should behave? Tokyo Rose was tried and convicted of treason. Ford later pardoned her for some extenuating circumstances. The French and other countries were far less charitable to collaborators after WWII. Justice was administerd in the streets and it went far beyond spitting.

It is interesting you are so offended by spitting. You should be more offended by what Fonda did.

And there you go.

I don't like Hanoi Jane, but yours is the best comment about this!

"I'll simply ask, would John Wayne ever have spit on anyone? Even Tokyo Rose? I doubt it."

You are absolutely right. He would have smacked her right in the chops.

There is a scene in one of his movies (I believe it was McClintock) where he said, "I won't hit you. I won't hit you. The Hell I won't." and then turned around and delivered a hay-maker in the typical John Wayne style.

He might not have spit, but to hear John Wayne speak to audiences about those who trashed ROTC offices, he would have used his fists, not his mouth (to speak or spit), if he encountered the culprits.
