Washington Watch: Showdown at the Vietnam Memorial

[piercingbryan84]

iraq vet here. i have been taught to uphold my military bearing until the the day i die. however, if you choose to spit on the names of my fallen brothers in arms, present or past, i will lose this bearing, and i would be glad to spend a night jail just to knock you out.

What a bunch of lunatics!!! Even if they don't agree with the current conflict, why would they harm a symbol of a conflict that ended over 30 years ago? It simply doesn't make sense. The Desecration of a memorial is just disgusting on so many levels. I bet the only thing they know about service is when they say "would you like that super sized?". They should take these people and make a permanent outhouse on their dead relatives grave that's for military use only. Think they would mind then?

@EmeraldJEM710 Because they associate the soldiers with the evils of war.

[RavenRaving2Earth]

Why is it considered to be NOT SUPPORTING OUR TROOPS to want to bring them home safely?

[rivronjack]

Thank you, Debbie.

[rivronjack]

Debbie, thank you for your incredible sacrifice, the loss of your wonderful son who served for all of us.  He died in service as a proud, brave, intelligent U S Navy Seal. Few will understand you loss.

die for greed of bosses weapon concerns is absolute stupidity.Anti-war protesters are right

[JohnnyQuince]

[riddickuv6]

[aubhar]

I am a Canadian and I am a proud man to know Americans were sent there by the GOVERNMENT brainwashing them to believe in bullshit and the soldiers went there to fight. Its the Governments fault...Not the soldiers! imastupidfish ...you call yourself a Canadian? If you are from Qubec...your not a Canadian. I am ashame to be your Canadian fello man. Fuck you and your family. I stand and salute VIETNAM SOLDIERS! Death to all Governments.... LIFE to our soldiers!!!!!!

[imastupidfish]

wow, you know i come from canada and when i watch videos like this americans look like fucking insane right wing fascists. "AMERICA!FREEDOM! FAITH IN GOD!" holy shit get over yourself. vietnam was an onslaught that dragged on for years and was a complete failure. under bushes rule thousands of people died. and all you care about is your memorial being vandalized by a bunch of hippies who dont like the idea of their president sending troops off to another country to murder and bomb people.

[ramtough85]

you have no idea how much this memorial means to people. it is the exact same thing, if a group of protestors wanted to desecrate the canadian flag. i dont like the idea that we are at war, but nonetheless.........i support the fighting men and women of this country.

[ramtough85]

and by the way, i have relatives names on that wall. AND ALL BE FUCKING DAMNED IF SOME HIPPY FUCKS WANNA SPIT ON MY FAMILIES NAME!!!!!!

[vetsfirstusa]

You dumbass canadian asshole, who are you going to call on to save your ass if your friggin' cuntry is invaded. FUCK CANADA AND EVEYBODY IN IT...

[scootts12]

do what you want but if you mess with memorials, I will piss on your grave, how dare you

[vntiger]

Did your son died for your "freedom of speech" or did he die so you can fuel your Viper at 79 cents per litre?

[frodowise]

You know, if we wanted the oil the entirety of the Middle East could do nothing as we bombed the everliving crud out of them. We would have all of OPEC in a matter of months. Instead we are trying to help and are being killed for it.

[vntiger]

what do you do when helping doesn't work? bomb? nuke? kill?

[DAMIENTHORN892]

The bleeding hearts did damage the memorial as they said they would. Gutless bastards that do not deserve to live in the U.S. They will pay for what they have done...

[repsac3]

If you're predisposed to believe the right, this will tell you just what you want to hear. (All that was missing was the claim of 30,000 "Eagles.")

[Mollydoodle123]

This was a very nice clip.
