... at least for the reason you might think. Rob sent me this link last week and I just kept forgetting to post it, but now seems like a great time in light of the below post. Apparently, a Syracuse woman spit on a soldier and everyone got their panties in a wad thinking (understandably) that it was some Vietnam-throwback horrible anti-war gesture. But in her court statement, she said the spitting came from a more personal place. Apparently a friend of hers stationed at nearby Fort Drum was rude to her on the phone so she lashed out at the closest Fort Drum G.I. she could find...
She deserves whatever punishment 2nd degree harassment charges bring but this is one way the parallels between Vietnam and the Iraq war just don't line up.
