I know it's fun to run around in righteous indignation, but as a secular veteran, I see the family's inability to make that distinction troubling.

Even when sent overseas on their missions they live in church owned housing,and are strictly monitored and supervised. They are not allowed to socialize with locals and the only contact they have with "the natives" is on their door to door jaunts.

Back home Mormons marry each other, socialize with each other in their church related and social activities. Talk about living in conditions where all their beliefs and cultural habits are constantly undergoing reinforcement to the extent they are conditioned to be as clueless as Ms Ann (and her husband) about everything outside their bubble.

I don't think this poor woman even guesses how offensive she is when she compares the cushy "service" her sons performed in Paris, Bordeaux, Leeds and Santiago in comparison to Vietnam, Iraq or Afghanistan.

A soldier over a pontificating asshole every time. Their thought process is Feudal.
