Grandma

Here's a quote from a government employee who witnessed a recent

interaction between an elderly woman and an antiwar protester in a train

station in Sydney

There were protesters on the train platform handing out pamphlets on the

evils of Australia 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, "Lady, don't you

care about the children of Iraq?"

The old woman looked up at her and said, "Honey, my father died in

France during World War I, I lost my husband in Korea, and a son in

Vietnam. All three died so you could have the right to stand here and

bad mouth our country. If you touch me again. I'll stick this umbrella

up your arse and open it."

God Bless Australia!!
