I own a black t-shirt that proclaims (on the back): **Disturbed Veteran Do Not Approach** When I wear it, mothers clutch their children and I am rarely jostled in check out lines. You'd think I was a ***** asking to shake hands. Mostly, they pretend blindness and just walk away as they did long ago when the war ended for them.

I love to mess with people. I have a t-shirt or bumper sticker to offend or frighten just about anyone. In this land of conformity, this brings me glee. I even have one that says: I Am Comfortable With Violence. That gets a look.
