The underlying issues here have never been discussed on here. Jim is older than most and his lifes experiences have been scrutinised and he has been punished accordingly. He is trying to change and if he was an x alki or druggy, he would be revered but alas society today is less tolerant and its all due to the new found freedom our younger and disrespectful generation are experiencing these days. It is no longer a society that tolerates, it has become a PC and ignorant society that has little or no respect for elders and their lifes experiences.

Acting like a dick gets applauded and Jim is simply less tolerant to these actions than most but he is funny with it. I can see his life and his past funny acts and his support for the troops is a gold star in my book. The kids in there want to forget that and drag up the past to kill him off as they see him as a threat. He might win and walk away head high, how will they cope when they come out.
