Soldier hides to avoid saluting flag, brags about it on Instagram

Quote
A solider has infuriated the online military community by posting a picture of herself on Instagram hiding in her car to avoid saluting the flag during retreat ceremony, which signals the end of duty for the day.

An Instagram picture of Pfc. Tariqka Sheffey has gone viral. Her post reads:

“This is me laying back in my car hiding so I don’t have to salute the 1700 flag, KEEP ALL YOUR ‘THATS SO DISRESPECTFUL/HOWRUDE/ETC.’ COMMENTS TO YOURSELF cuz, right now, IDGAFFFF.”

I wonder how she slipped by. Such dishonor.  :mental:

She doubled down on stupid and posted another one.

Not only that they'll probably toss her a commission.

The sad thing is...looking at her FB and Google + page is that she's got family members in the service as well...so she comes fromt that background...and she's got a daughter too. Now she's going to be without a career in the military.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

I'm sure the chain of command will be dealing with this in an appropriate way.  :evillaugh:

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

Looks like they have enough to sky-hook her ass over the fence, I would think.

Arrested for failure to appear. I suspect she has been arrested more than once. I wonder when she enlisted.
