I did a lot of '...' but it was to get my point across. I am a 100% SC disabled vet and if I saw someone lost in the world I would give them a hand, not make them into jokes. I'd probably put my arm around them and buy them some food or something.
At least with what I learned in the military I was taught not to not take advantage of people. Protect, not make fun of. Plus, the people they are making fun of are Americans also.
What do you all think?

While it would be nice to believe that most people feel the same as you (and myself), all too often we see the real and ugly side of some of them when they are anonymous or think they are among like-minded others...such as here.
I too was always taught to stand up for the underdog, minorities and against bullies...hence my signature.
