Some Vets go crazy over a group playing pokemon go in a memorial park.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYyO1HofVuQ

Funniest part of the video:

"Wheres your fuckin' ring for your fuckin' nose?"
"Your daughter has it."

:lol:

That was pretty funny. Somebody needs to get that old guy a safe space. His poor little feelings got hurt. :lol:

I am not finding the humor.

Did you see the part where the old guy tripped over himself knocking the tent down?

I thought the old vet's reaction was funny. It was a ridiculous overreaction. Some kids are playing a game on their phones in the vicinity of a veterans memorial, and this crazy asshole acted like they were tagging the tombstones with spray paint and pissing on the graves.

Yeah I got that. I didn't see the egging the old guys on and cell phone videoing as funny.

I understand your point, we just disagree. I'm fine with people using mockery as a response to threats of violence.

It would help if the video didn't start in the middle of the argument. There has to be a whole build up that we are missing.

Yeah that would be helpful. It did not appear as if the pokemon players were doing anything disrespectful, but we don't have the whole story.

On my delivery route to the hospice house I witnessed a crowd of pokemon people "hunting" pokeys. I couldn't care less about this game but piss off where people are trying to die in peace.

I'm not sure what context there could be to explain a dude going all Kiefer Sutherland on a tent that he's already knocked down while kids laugh and talk about how they wish he would have taken a swing at him.

As I said before, bad look for all. Everyone could have been a hell of a lot better about this thing.

Kids:

Maybe find another stop/gym/what the fuck ever to hang out at that doesn't provoke the ire of Veterans
Don't antagonize the clearly disturbed Veteran
Don't play the "you fought for my right to be here" card...fuck seriously?!?!

Veterans:

Don't threaten kids
Don't damage others property
Don't call the cops when you are the only one who has actually broken any laws
