KC Man spits on Jane Fonda
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor.../fonda_spitter
TIM CURRAN, Associated Press Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A man spit tobacco juice into the face of actress Jane Fonda after waiting in line to have her sign her new book, police said. The man ran off but was quickly caught by police Tuesday night and charged with disorderly conduct. Fonda has been on tour and doing interviews to promote her just-published memoir, "My Life So Far." The thrice-married, two-time Academy Award winner covers a wide array of topics, including her 1972 visit to Hanoi to protest the Vietnam War, during which she was photographed on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun. She has apologized for that photo, but not for opposing the war. Capt. Rich Lockhart of the Kansas City Police Department said that although Fonda did not want to press charges against Michael A. Smith, 54, of Kansas City, he was arrested on a municipal charge of disorderly conduct after off-duty officers caught him just outside Unity Temple, where Fonda was signing books. Lockhart said Smith was released on bond late Tuesday night and is due to appear in municipal court on May 27. Smith, a Vietnam veteran, told The Kansas City Star on Wednesday that Fonda was a "traitor" and that her protests against the war were unforgivable. He said he normally does not chew tobacco but did so Tuesday solely to spit juice on the actress. "I consider it a debt of honor," he told The Star for a story on its Web site, www.kansascity.com. "She spit in our faces for 37 years. It was absolutely worth it. There are a lot of veterans who would love to do what I did." |

Nevertheless, there's a very limited number of circumstances where I would consider one person spitting in another person's face as anything but classless, disgusting and uncalled for. Getting back at someone for whatever they did 35 years ago isn't likely to qualify unless they ran over your brother or child or something... |

It's easy to say, "good job, man" to someone else who does something f'd up in the name of a good cause, but most of us have the decency not to do it ourselves. |

Just because it was what she deserved doesn't negate the fact that the guy who gave it to her comes off as a classless loser. |

Let's pause and remember how cool of a guy Henry Fonda was. Oh, he was so good in Once Upon a Time in the West. All his westerns, really. And 12 Angry Men, definitely. It's too bad his daughter grew up to be like that. I think he blamed himself.
