... who could blame a family member of this kid for going vigilante on the vigilantes which of course would beget retaliation in kind... Not likely in this case since his father was a previous Commander of the Post.

Two problems and it’s not complicated: 1), one of the choices involved getting his ass beat. That’s extortion by violence. 2) the perpetrators made a deal that they really didn’t have the authority to deliver. The police were still free (and still are) to charge the victim with vandalism, arson and a host of other charges.

Melas, don't try to defend that. You have publicly admitted here you fight a bit too Exactly why I find it so abhorent. I don't fight a bit, I fought (past tense) a lot. A distinction I believe to be profound. I've got a face scarred by violence and memories of drinking a 5th to go to sleep because my hands were so swollen and painful that I couldn't sleep otherwise after pounding some poor bastard until I didn't have the breath to pound on him anymore. Consider me the militant ex-smoker of brawling.

I’ve seen that too. I saw a cop bi_ch slap a college hippy in Texas once when the hippy started walking on the flag. I laughed so hard I had tears coming from my eyes.
To: Melas
You left out he could call the cops.
Big thing to leave out.

Well, I guess since one of the choices was going to the cops, the other don’t bother me.
Even if the cops choose to press charges [which I’d be surprised if they did] I suspect that the vets wouldn’t testify.

Thats called vandalism, nothing more. Do you beat up vandals, or do you press criminal charges against them? How about you, do you believe in the rule of law? Give me a moment to think this one out. Which one involves less paperwork?

when freepers start on all that you people sort of talk they soon become gone Is that a threat, "wardaddy"? You should think more about what you say.
I don't think wardaddy threatened you. I think he was explaining that self righteous posers tend to get the zot.

Maybe you can still get on at the WhiteHouse, why don't don't 'ya give 'em a call, you might just get lucky. I hear Hussein O. still needs a pet. I thought the "Smug, self-righteousness Czar" position was already filled.

I enjoyed the fights I lost less..lol...I’m too old now....I just spank my kids and my wife when she’ll let me (/s) and brawl a bit here.
Vicarious old age living sux...
my last fight was 8 years ago at 44 but I won against a youngster...a w-worder...it was great way to retire
now I can just flap my gator with relative impunity
To: dr_who
you’re on a run making pals here today pardner, are you always so warm and fuzzy?
To: I got the rope
Was that in Houston? I seem to remember some Iranians getting knocked around in a protest downtown in the ‘70s.

To: Little Bill
that’s a true story, he just didn’t want to be a pat of it....Funny as hell, “If they burn that flag, will you arrest me while I am kicking his ass or after?”
And Little Bill is right, the cop just shook his head and walked away! :)
I can imagine his thoughts...”3 weeks until retirement, Lord, please let me finish it soon...”
