Not sure of anyone else has read about this Plymouth woman yet... who did a terrible, stupid thing. If you have not heard yet - google her name... not sure if it's appropriate to post a pic of what she did here - so I won't - but what she thought was a harmess, funny pic has turned her life into turmoil. And rightfully so at this point.

There are also FB pages calling to get this woman fired. The scene is turning into a mob scene... sort of scary - one thing is for sure - she won't forget about this day... ever.

What an idiot. What the hell was she thinking? Not funny at all.

In Canada, there was an idiot who did even worse. Minature flags were planted in a park for Remembrance day and a jogger was kicking them over and a couple told him to stop but he flipped them a bird and said "Stop me if you can". This was caught on video with a cellphone.

I'm amazed the posted guard didn't escort her happy ass right off there with his/her boot in it.

She makes a comment that they were just being "douchebags" that were " just challenging authority".

I'm sorry, there is no authority at the Tomb. It's a Tomb that pays respect to men and women who have died doing something they felt was right. It's protected out of respect, not authority.

Perhaps before disrespecting the veterans, living or dead, that protect her first amendment rights to act like piece-of-$hit, she should learn what the Tomb is about.

Disrespectful and stupid, yes. At the end of the day it amounts to a harmless prank and maybe a misguided/ineffective political statement. not worthy of losing a job over as People have done far worse with little to no similar repercussions.

She was on a trip for her job when she took this pic. If this was personal trip, I would say no however because she was on a trip paid for by her job then I would say whatever the company decides is just. Even if it means her & her coworker who took the pic get fired.

I don't know if she should have lost her job but she should be called out for being a complete moron.
