Yep thats happening here also.. someone went around & stole the Vet's flag holders.. & whatever else they can still off it.. I feel this is very low of them.. I know times are getting hard & you do what you have to do to survive.. but theres also respect that one has for the dead as will as the ones that have served in the wars & the past wars... think its gonna get worse ...& the president says the Economy is just Great... then why are people stealing from the dead.. when brass is high at the scrape yards... ???

people having been stealing from the dead since there were enough people to promote greed and covetness. That doesnt make it right. Its just a sad, IMHO, that there are humans that prey on the suffering of the remaining family that way.
