Morally Reprehensible

Some people are just pretty goddamn sorry.

Less than 24 hours after an Ohio soldier was buried, someone pulled up 20 American flags from his father-in-law's front yard and set fire to them under a car in the driveway, according to WLWT-TV in Cincinnati.

The family of Pfc. Timothy Hines and neighbors can't understand why someone would do that.

"If it wasn't random vandalism, what statement were they trying to make?" said Jim Wessels, Hines' father-in-law.

The car, belonging to Wessel's daughter, was burned beyond repair.

Whatever statement they were trying to make, they were obviously not proud enough of it to make it in broad daylight or in public view....but rather chose to sneak around like an egg-sucking dog.

Craven cowards.
