A photo of a Massachusetts woman flashing her middle finger at Arlington National Cemetery has sparked widespread disgust across the web and prompted an online petition to get the woman fired from her job. Lindsey Stone posted the picture of herself making the obscene gesture at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, next to a sign at the military cemetery that asks for ´Silence and Respect,´ in October and the snapshot quickly went viral.

FTA "...it was just a spur of the moment total lapse of judgment. She´s very sorry that she offended anybody,´ according to her father. Yeah, it was just a "spur of the moment" thing when she posted it on Facebook, too? No, she knew what she was doing, and the disrespect was her intention. She showed us what she thought of those of us who fought for her freedom to do it. If she continues to work there at Life, then a large number of vets will cross that place off their list.

Let us not forget that those who died in service to country did it so this twit could exercise free speech. And, we are free to call her a classless idiot. I love free speech.

All of us do stupid things on occasion. But it takes a really classless idiot to compound the stupidity by posting it on Facebook. I didn´t see her age in the article, but I certainly hope her emotional maturity catches up before she does too much damage.

Disgusting slob. Yes, it has the right to do what it did Because of the dead she insulted. It also was a slap to every family member of those who died so it could be disrespectful. It would be ´wrong´ but , oh so satisfying to have someone slap it to the ground and walk away whistling. ( ´it´ refers to what appears to be a ´her´ )

It was a stupid and disrespectful thing to do and to post it on Facebook no less. Having said that, I don´t want to demand she be fired, that´s what the left does.

A good time to remember that actions have consequences. The actions of those buried at Arlington gave the woman that ability to "act stupidly". Her action may lead to losing the job. Losing her job may improve her behavior in the future.

Dear Ms Stone,

Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life. Instead of being "employed" at LIFE, it appears you should be a resident.

So, she comes from a state that seems to embrace socialism and communism. As such, her contempt for our veterans doesn´t surprise me.

Oh, #7, because, " that´s what the left does, you don´t want to do it." Great.
They´ve been kicking our asses for over 40 years in their Long March. Yeah, let´s stay on the high road and lose our freedoms with style and class.
I say bullcrap. I´m sick of it. It´s time we adopt some of their weapons to win this war. Step on their necks at every turn and don´t let up.
There, I feel better.

She may have the freedom to do something so despicable, but her employer has the freedom to fire her $#%.

Stone should be embarrassed not fired. Bill Maher, Steven Colbert, Jon Stewart , Rosanne Barr etc. have done far worse and are celebrated for their edgy wit.

She has a right to be Offensive. Just as her employer if Personally Offended he has the right to fire her!

Let them work it out!

#13, I don´t think she has any need for contraceptives. She is not in any danger of being raped since bestiality with hogs is still viewed as a sick perversion. Oh..wait. I see she lives in deep blue Massachusetts. Hmmm

I think Lindsey can be considered as a poster girl for the political party which occupies our White House. Maybe she could pose with her significant other for the poster picture.
.... It is doubtless that the Facebook post accurately defines many of the voters who re-elected Obama.

What you see here is an attack on society, not an attack on what society has to say. Freedom of speech was intended to protect dissident speech, not anti-social, juvenile speech simply intended to break down the social bonds of civilization. There is a difference, and it´s time for the law to catch up.

This is an area where people really misunderstand the Constitution. The Constitution deals with the relationship between the Government and the People. It does not regulate the relationship between people. The Government can not stop your free speech and people can not use "state action" to stop your free speech; but people are absolutely free to argue that free speech is commercially bad for business or bad for charities.

Re: some of these comments, I grew up in MA and a lot of my high school classmates served proudly in the US military. The state does have its ample share of liberal idiots and low-class losers like this woman, but it also has a lot of US veterans. Many of them vote Republican. This is doubly true when you get out past metro Boston, into the smaller towns. Thanks.

I agree with #12. For every 1st Amendment action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For too long, its like we have been playing a game of tiddlywinks with the Progressives. The problem is, they aren´t playing tiddlywinks, they are in a boxing match with us and they use different rules in their game. Whenever one on our side doesn´t follow our rules and plays by their boxing match rules, they scream and we scream foul. Its time we quit playing tiddlywinks with them and get into the boxing ring, take the gloves off and wait for the bell.

I´m sure Code Pink and the American Communist Party are both waiting to offer her a job when she loses her current one.

She will fit right in!!!

And I´m sure MSNBC has already offered her a job as their military correspondent. She has clearly masterd their utter hate and comptempt for our military...

Frankly, I don´t see it as that big a deal... a playful mug for the camera and an ill advised (i.e. stupid) post. People tend forget that Facebook is not as private as a photo album on the coffee table. I saw it as mocking the sign´s admonition, not mocking the reverence of the cemetery. It is ridiculous that such a sign is necessary.

In short, I saw it as a brief encounter with a poor attempt at humor, not intended as a message of disrespect toward those fallen. She said she was sorry. I believe she is sincere in that apology.

#36, I don´t!
#12, my second post as well. I do not care if some think we will be like ´them´. We are accused of countless wrongs out of their liberal playbooks anyway. Yes, I´m racist-I cannot stand the liberal-progressive race. They need to be removed from the public stage.

OK #36, consider this.

I, as a white male, do the exact same thing, EXACTLY, that this woman did.....

at a memorial area for Martin Luther King Jr.

I would be immediately fired no matter where I worked, and if the company paused even briefly, busloads of people would descent and picket the business.

Every talk show would be running the story non-stop, it would obscure even the Obama news.

Guaranteed.

But for fallen soldiers...of all colors...its no big deal.

I am curious, what exactly IS a big deal to you?

However odious the woman is, remember that those soldiers died to protect Americans´ right of free speech.
Without that, America is Europe.

Those soldiers died defending the right for all to freedom of speech.... INCLUDING the ones condemning her actions, demanding her to be fired. Nope, the deaths of those soldiers didn´t stop with her degrading use of the 1st Amendment.

WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Serviced scandal today spread further within the White House and closer to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care?
