If you said he was 6'3" I might think we were related. :-)

[retrokitten]

Yes, that is the one!

I thought Imus was a women.

Watch, I've probably started a round of Imus bashing and he's my main man.

They were talking to a college professor who is also a Nam Vet.

One of ours or one of theirs?

[politicket]

He (airborne Ranger) 'mopped the floor' with the piece of dirt while security guards counted ceiling tiles.

Now THAT I would have paid good money to watch!!!

Like, we did come into some military bases. But, then we had to fly home on leave, etc. and that was from the civilian airports. Stupid liberals as usual.

[RetiredArmy]

Yup. I guess my saving grace was the cop saw it, otherwise, I could see the headline on the Atlanta Constipation newspaper: "Vietnam Baby Killer Attacks Unarmed, Nice War Protester in Hartsfield Airport."

Could you post that thread link here?

first of all shame on MSNBC for not having someone to counter what this dude is saying

and the reality is many people like Jane Fonda and John Kerry figuratively spit on the Vietnam Veterans, if not literally, with their false accusations

[ApplegateRanch]

I wonder what happened to all the local news footage from back then? I KNOW things like this were covered, and spitting was at least mentioned.

I lived in the Barf Area at the time, and demonstrations, protests, riots, and all the rest were regular news fare.

What about newspaper archives? People know when they returned, so that gives a time frame to look.

Look, the left doesn't want critical scrutiny of this guy. He does his damage by raising the question. The MSM will neglect any followup....such as he is a fraud. It does not suit the left's agenda to document that they actually seriously damaged people.

They've already tried the fake Nam Vet testimony thing, and the fake document thing. Now they just routinely surface the garbage and hope it gets some feet.

They make the old Soviet regime look lame in their propaganda efforts.

July 1974 in Biloxi I can tell you that the guy that spit on me got a fist in return and I got tossed from the bar.

I was "saved" by an Atlanta cop in the airport who saw the whole thing and quickly moved in and told me he would handle the scum and told me to walk on. When I looked back, he had thrown the scum up against the wall, spread him and doing the rough pat-down thing. I, like you, was ready to cold-cock the SOB before the cop quickly jumped in. Probably saved me from doing time in the GA state pen, because my aim was to beat the every loving life out of the SOB.
