Hari Krishna: Vietnam Vet Rip-Off

By VVAW

In Beloit, Wisconsin, on September 25th, two scumbags from the Hari Krishna sect, wearing wigs and streets clothes, were arrested for misrepresenting themselves as Vietnam veterans collecting money for Agent Orange victims. Police found $1700 in cash, a van with assorted wigs and OD clothing, and maps and schedules of localities with various state-wide events. A 7x5 inch sticker is offered in return for a donation: it has a white background with a red eagle stenciled on it and the words, "Don't mess with the US." The Krishna's were charged with felony theft and fraud with a maximum fine of $10,000 and a 2 year jail sentence. As for the Madison chapter of VVAW, which was informed of the arrest, "we're looking for a tail of hair for our flag standard!"
