Since we are talking about insult, think about this.
As Bonnie pointed out, if a mother wanted to honor her lost son, she would support his desire to serve and defend our country. In fact, it wouldn't even matter if she agreed with the war or not.
Just the fact that her son felt so strongly about serving in our military should be enough.
We are at a time where there is a volunteer military. No one came into their house in the middle of the night and "took" him to serve in the miltary. He walked down to the recruiting station on his own free will and enlisted.
He apparently discussed this with her, she knew ahead of time and they both knew the risks.
In fact, she was proud of his service; as was indicated by her FIRST visit with President Bush - which she spoke so highly and fondly of.
Now...with her doing what she is now, she is dishonoring his memory. And dishonoring every single military member who lost their life. And dishonoring every family member of every single military member who lost their life.
And, dishonoring the military members and their families who are still serving.
Insult?
Beefy, her behaviour is insulting.
