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."

My ONLY point when I started discussing this is that this guy is CLASSLESS and that bugs me because he's now created a national news story that shows off how we have classless people in KC. I have NO problem with the law's handling of the situation whatsoever, and I've never said anything in this thread that would suggest otherwise.

If he had any class he would have wacked her is that what your saying?

Now that I know more of the story, I understand why the guy spit on her. And I still think it was a classless thing to do. Nothing you can say will change my mind. Sorry.

lnobody is trying to change you're mind, you're being anal about it.

Go watch Jerry Springer, I'm sure there are plenty of people there who you can freak out over.

I'd understand your obssession if nothing happened to the guy. authorities took care of the situation, sorry that's not good enough for you, if it was, you wouldn't have wasted most of your night to proclaim over and over how much this bothers you.

I think he should have pissed in a Gatoraid cup and thrown that on her. Then again I am a pretty classless guy.

She felt the ends justified the means and be damned all those who were in captivity and made to listen to her bullshit. So f!ck her right in her treasonous ass, is her book selling in North Vietnam?

The war in Vietnam was not about defending any American interests or rights. It was about paranoia and an inability to accept the fact we were wrong. 100,000 American and French lives washed away. This is the same reasoning used by our government to stockpile over 28,000 nuclear weapons from 1959 to 1962. Vietnam and the cold war was a complete and total waste of economic and human resources. Don’t ask for a link, I’ve posted it before on this site.

I'm not reading through the whole thread, but as far as I'm concerned, the only thing the guy did wrong was to try to run after he did it (should have known one of her security nazis would nail him).

That fucking c#nt should have been executed as a traitor decades ago. Nothing that ever happens to her can be bad enough.

DIE YOU EVIL TRAITOROUS fuckING BITCH!

Perfect.

Although, I'd have preferred a long prison sentence so the prison dykes could have reamed her a few times with large objects...

Of course Al Queda doesn't represent all Muslims. But plenty of Americans think it does. Why? Because they're stupid. Most of the rest of the world thinks Kansas is a crazy place because we "don't teach evoloution." Of course, that's not really accurate -- but that's what they hear. The rest of the country thinks Kansas just "banned gay marraige." Of course, we know that's not even close to being accurate -- but that's what they hear (either because of bad reporting or selective listening".

I read the article above as someone who knew NOTHING about Fonda's actions in Vietnam. The article above told me some dud spit in her face because of her protest. It didn't tell me a damn thing about what she did in protest. I assumed she held up some signs or something. Why should I have believed otherwise if the article doesn't tell me?

Now that I know more of the story, I understand why the guy spit on her. And I still think it was a classless thing to do. Nothing you can say will change my mind. Sorry.

So we have the arbiter of Class right here in our midst. I will seek you out whenever I value your advice on being classy. Thanks

As if we needed any further proof that you're a stupid f**king communist.

Vietnam was about keeping one country from taking over another. Pu**ies like you back here in the states putting pressure on the spineless politicians is why a war against a pissant country like North Vietnam cost 100,000 lives. We could have torched the North to the point where feeding themselves was as much work as they could do, then they wouldn't have been so anxious to fight.

As for the nukes, let's say we didn't build any while the Russians built their 30,000+. When they stepped up and said "surreneder or die", what would you have done there smart guy?

Tell that to my daughter whose biological grandpa was shot down by one of the anti-aircraft guns that Fonda planted herself on. He is not with us anymore.

When I was a kid my Dad wouldn't allow Fonda in our house and I didn't understand it. Now I can't believe so many every day people treat her with respect.

I live in SF and always second guess the values of my neighbors (including those 30 minutes south in San Mateo) and I still can't believe in good old Kansas where I grew up with BBQ and football there are this many pinko-commies (that's what my Dad (Red Foreman) called them are in KC.

Go Chiefs! Black Labs Rule! Pit Bulls drool
