Teachable Moment ....
Ace has the story of how a young chowderhead learns a lesson of respect for well ....... a lot of things.

Flag burner pilloried in Valley Falls

"VALLEY FALLS -- Some veterans in this community resorted to some medieval punishment after a village man burned the American flag on a pole in front of the Veterans of Foreign Wars post.

The young man, whose name was not released, was duct taped to the pole by veterans for about six hours last Sunday with a sign around his neck accusing him of being a flag burner."


It's a pretty cool story. My favorite part is that it seems they gave him a few "Options".

Go Read it all. Or read This version from the VFW site

And consider this part -
"He adds the man learned his lesson, and with that lesson learned, Normile now wants to protect the man from any violent retaliation."

Pretty classy.
