Normally I wouldn´t say fire them after doing something so stupid but they were there on the companies dime and it reflects poorly on the organization. Also why have employees who are so stupid.

And I certainly hope her sorry butt does not receive any unemployment benefits...she needs to drag that butt from interview to endless interview and explain why she got fired. Can we put those interviews on Youtube? Wouldn´t that be "cool?"

She should not receive one thin dime of money from anyone.

So stupid. Direct from MA. We know who they are. How they think and Vote.

Stupid is as stupid does.

The company regrets "any disrespect." Being Massachusetts, one gets the impression they fired the pair to still public outcries, not because they condemned what they did.

True, Poster #1, but also this involves, at the least, "poor judgment". Why let such pieces of trash impose this character flaw upon their charges?

Well I think she deserved to be fired. There are things you can joke about and some you just can´t. And the final resting place for men and women who died for their country is one of the can´ts.

I noticed the parents of Stone spoke out about sorry she was. Let´s see an overweight single woman in her late twenties, living with her parents, and working for a non-profit. Oh yeah, I think I´ve spotted part of her problem.

Don´t laugh when they end up working either for Kerry or Warren, or in the Obama Administration.

25 complaints were received after the incident? Bet by today, that number has increased to at least 2500.

Yesterday I read that Lindsey’s 61-year old father apologized for her behavior. Apparently, the ‘girl’ is 30 years old and lives at home with mom and dad. I’m sure she went for a liberal arts degree on federally subsidized student loans. Now she will be collecting unemployment and food stamps.

She is the embodiment of the Democrat’s ‘Julia’.

I have a strong feeling alcohol was involved, none the less actions have consequences and Cupcake, you´re toast.

Go figure, another Massachusetts liberal revealing their blatant ignorance and lack of class.

Well...its not as if she ever left Mom and Dad´s basement in the first place...Now she´ll join that long line of Obama voters sucking off the government teat.

I do find it amazing that actions do occasionally have consequence, even in today´s world of ´its not my fault´.

Oh ...there it is, something else this old offended veteran is thankful for.

There was a time when we would have taken care of this problem with public humiliation of the perp and a good sound whipping.

Good.

What #16 said

Adios, pendeja.

Next stop, the maher/madcow/msnbc freakshow tour (maybe. I won´t be surprised.).

n 196, or thereabouts, I was visiting the luxemburg american cemetary, where thousands of our troops are buried, with General Patton buried at the top of the layout of graves. And above that is a wall, about 4 feet high.
Perched on that wall was a young woman, striking a pose like a 1940s movie starlet, and a young man was taking her picture.
To this day, I regret not putting the young man and his camera into a trash receptacle.

I thought of that when I saw this story.
And if she didn´t mean to be disrespectful, what did she mean??

Ordinarily, I would say this was a free speech matter and support her right to do it and oppose her being fired. BUT she was on company time on a company trip. I still support her right to do it (vulgar and crass though she may be), but her employer wasn´t wrong to fire her, IMHO.

Correct # 20

Plus, her coworker (appareantly) took the picture and it ended up on FB.

These are all actions taken with a PURPOSE not some High School girl prank.

Can we fire Barack Obama for his two finger gestures aimed at John McCain and Hillary Clinton? No? Is it because he is held to a different standard? What standard is that?

#20- this was never a "free speech" issue. Freedom of speech protects our speech from being punished or limited by the government, and government only!
We certainly do not have freedom to say whatever we want without consequences in the private sector. For example you can´t walk into work every morning and tell your boss vile, disgusting, or vulgar things without it affecting your future employment.

Who knew that actions have consequences? Good on the "Life" management.

She was there as an employee watching over a group of disabled children. Where were they when she and her companions were being disrespectful ?

She didn´t mean any disrespect? Well, alright then. I guess in her world, mocking a call for respectful silence and flipping a bird is . . . what?

As much as this chick´s all too common vulgarity is a blight on our culture, so also is her kid of self-justifying non-apology apology, which implies that those who took offense misinterpreted her meaning. What a moron - she´s too stupid to have a job working with people if she doesn´t see any inherent disrespect in her actions.

And that is why they are called Massholes.
