ONE AWESOME SENIOR CITIZEN!!

[Mr. Chevy]

Here's a quote from a government employee who witnessed a recent interaction between an elderly woman and an antiwar protester in a Metro station in DC.

There were protesters on the train platform handing out pamphlets on the evils of America. I politely declined to take one.

An elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20-ish) female protester offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined.

The young protester put her hand on the old woman's shoulder as a gesture of friendship...................... and in a very soft voice said, 'Lady, don't you care about the children of Iraq?'

The old woman looked up at her and said, in a very soft voice, “Honey, my father died in France during World War II, I lost my husband in Korea , and a son in Vietnam. All three died so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth our country. If you touch me again, I 'll stick this umbrella up your a$$ and open it!”
