I and several hundred other US Servicemen returned FRom Vietnam to LAX in late 1972; we were in uniform. We were met inside the terminal by a sizeable rowdy anti-Vietnam war crowd who were taunting us and calling us “baby killers.”
One hippy-dippy chick spit on me and called me a “baby killer” to my face.
I told her that if I were not an Officer and a Gentleman, I would knock her on her ass!
I have always regretted not knocking her on her ass!
I have a theory about LIEberals: A LIEberal is someone who has never been knocked on their ass, either physically or metaphorically, for some action they took or comment made.
IMHO, if certain words and deeds were legally “actionable,” there would be a Hellofalotless LIEberals interfering with us good guys as we go about Making America Great Again!
Had you knocked her on her ass, and I was standing right there....I wouldn't have seen a thing.
Thank you for your service.
I was approached, while in uniform, by a filthy hippy chick while trying to order food at McDonald’s. She called me a “no good dog”.
Back handed her in the face and she was gone.
Today if I did that, I’d be in court....
Bingo!
I've heard of such things as Fightin' Words.
Any of our FR lawyers want to expand on this?
