Vietnam vets protest Jane Fonda's Broadway show. Should Vietnam vets forgive Jane Fonda? (controversial, radical)

Support your soldiers.

Let's get the U.A.W. to organize them to achieve equal pay with Blackwater soldiers.

A company-wide strike might be just the ticket.

The Constitution does not require freedom of speech to be "earned", either by military service or by anything else whatsoever. Your problem is apparently with James Madison. Traitor!!!

Troll or moron? You make the call.



That said, I think vets should give it a rest already. Yeah she's an idiot and deserves their contempt but thumbs down to the "public protests."

All you are doing is repeating reguritating views meant to lower the moral and ability of the military and doing it in what has become, 35+ years later, a fashionable manner.

Easy to do when you are not personally involved. You can easily be an apologist for something you don't truly understand.

I understand one thing well enough: Vietnam veterans were not defending the United States. That's not even a matter of opinion.

Well, it makes them nostalgiac for the war, when they could get away with actually doing things like that Don't forget to add rape to the list, though.
