    A waste of human life that accomplished exactly nothing.

    USFREEDUMB needs to realize that.

    I always thought some part of MASH was figuratively speaking to those knuckleheads and war mongers, by highlighting the utter futility and moral degeneracy of the Vietnam War.

    Much of it by the Viet Cong on the South Vietnamese. You're supposedly old enough so how come you didn't get drafted?

    The VC bulldozed over the Souths graveyards and destroyed most of the western influence after the war....reminds me of the pinheads of today

    trying to destroy any reminders of southerners from the Civil War....protesting southern monuments and the rebel flag, etc......

    they're just like the VC in Vietnam.....assholes attempting to rewrite history to their liking....
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    Surprisingly they left churches like Notre Dame, although you can still see bullet holes in the brick walls outside. It was only by going to Vietnam that I realised that most of the Vietcong were actually South Vietnamese controlled by the Viet Ming who were from the North.

    Leave it to Beaver, are you insane? Anyway if you paid attention you'd know that it had three sell out runs in the West End.
