Vietnam Veteran Owns Westboro Protestor Who Was Stepping On American Flag

Harrison Lee10 years ago

Richard Pierce is an American hero. Literally. He’s a Marine that fought for our country in Vietnam. He also hates America-hating losers such as some members of Westboro Baptist Church.

Recently, Richard was attending a counter-protest to Westboro since they decided to picket the funeral for Attorney General Beau Biden in Wilmington. Unfortunately, one Westboro member picked the wrong day to be a complete asshat. This stupid little shit thought it’d be fun to disrespect Old Glory by stepping on it and dragging it on the ground.

Something inside Richard snapped, and rightfully so. Filled with rage that someone could disrespect the flag like that, he knew he had to take action.

From Army Times:

“It was not my intention to cause a problem,” Pierce told The News Journal. “However, when I saw the young lady walking across the highway, dragging our flag under her feet, I lost my temper and the only way that I could demonstrate that is spill my coffee on them.”

Then as the women placed their signs into their car, Pierce tossed the coffee at them, striking two of them.

I love everything about that move. Sometimes you toss some hot coffee on some idiot to teach them a little lesson about freedom. Pierce was arrested for his actions since the courts still allow these losers to disrespect our flag and apparently tossing coffee on someone is frowned upon.

You’re a hero, Pierce. Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise..
