Just got this in an e-mail. I don't know if its been posted here before, or if its true.
I have to believe this is just about the "Greatest Email" I have ever gotten!... God, Bless the USA!
Don't mess with our Country - nor our Grandmas!.......
Here's a quote from someone 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 (20ish) 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, "Ma'am, don't you care about the children of Iraq?"
The old woman looked up at her and said, "Honey, my first husband died in France during World War II, my second husband died in Korea, one of my sons died in Vietnam, a Grandson died in Desert Storm, all so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth your country. If you touch me again. I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it."

Will likely turn out to be some "urban legend", but I sure HOPE it's true. Don't jack with the old folks, they'll fill you in on just where and how wrong you are. God love 'em. :cool:
