And for what? Conspiracy Theorists from the Past

Dana Andrews serves a fistful of lunch to a misguided self-righteous punk.

This video disregards our constitution which is something that every soldier/sailor must defend. A soldier/sailor swares to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. Furthermore, the video depicts a person who was non-violent and excercised his constitutional right of freedom of speech. The sailor and soda jerck committed assault and both should be arrested, behind bars, and a civil suit should be launched against both.

Great comment! There is nothing better than folks with a good sense of humor!

Amazing how Americans were duped into fighting to protect the colonial empires of the French, English and Dutch. Also amazing that they agreed to support the murderous Soviets. Yes, it was all one big lie and most Americans love lies.

My son is typing this for me. I am a Pearl Harbor AND Normandy survivor. To those of of you commenting negativley about MY generation who served during WW2.Know this,I didn't join up to see the horrors of war.,I wasonly 18 .Afterall the combat,all me & my buddies wanted to do was go home alive.After I got back. I realized what we fought for... we fought for YOU, our future children.The US may not be perfect, but I have seen Hitlers world,YOU have NOT thank God! This movie said "Thank you" to us.

I'm a Navy vet too. I appreciate that the guy calling us suckers was just using his freedom of speech. He wasnt punched out for that. It was the fact that he called a vet who lost his hands and made that sacrifice for what he believed in a sucker that got his nose caved in. If I was in that sailor's position I'd have done the same thing. Its besides the point if the government kept things from us Service men/women, We love this country and it's spirit enough to give our lives for it

@hofnerjoe God bless you sir. And thank you for my freedom.

The proper lesson of this clip is not about politics, national or international. Its not about conspiricys or diplomatic intrique. Its about the folly of telling a man who has lost a large part of himself, his body or his spirit or both, that it was for nothing. Don't do that, its as stupid now as it was then.

It's especially warped and galling that Fred orders the VICTIM of Homer's vicious assault to stand down, then attacks him himself. Fred's unfaithful wife has my sympathy.

Fast-forward a few weeks to Fred and Homer being served papers for battery and losing hundreds in court. Nothing less than they deserve.

[ArcoFlagellant]

@ZIPPTPH77 Yeah, that is what should have happened to the leftist soldier and soda jerk.

[ArcoFlagellant]

@luomio Amen, so very true.

[ArcoFlagellant]

I believe it was the soldiers defending the murdering monsters - those murderers being the Communist - and the anti-war guy at the counter was defending the lives of Americans.

[ArcoFlagellant]

Disgusting leftist pro-war propaganda. People would rather more people die than even consider the possibility that America could enter into a war that we have no business in. The same attitudes persist today and cause death and suffering at home and abroad. Apparently what that guy lost his arms defending was the Soviets, because he certainly didn't believe in freedom.

@JamesJPond You are 100% right, this movie was full of subtle hints of cummunist propaganda, Ayn Rand wanted to denounce it in her HUAC testimony as a friendly witness.

@dougalmac54

God bless our brave men and women of the armed forces
