Nope, I lived in Southern California. I followed the advice of the U. of Cal. campus draft advisor, and successfully appealed until they gave up on me. As for Canada, my conservative grandparents in Winnipeg offered for me to move there, without having any idea of whether I was for or against the war. Canada and the rest of the world opposed the Vietnam war, contrary to what you read now.

 

Just about every vet I served with opposed the war....and you know that...I wouldn't want to live in Winnipeg....I've been there

 

For you young people reading this revisionist history, know that they sure didn't oppose the war when they volunteered, and half of them did.

 

In 20 years, most Iraqi veterans will probably conform and say they were against their own war. Sure they were. The true test is, do you stand up now, against new wars, and educate the young who want to become the new killers. Or do you conform to the media war fever leading into each war. (e.g. those of you currently badmouthing Russia, Syria, North Korea, Venezuela, Iran, Burma, Sudan, etc.)

 

yeah....my son didn't volunteer...he went to college...I volunteered for the Navy when my draft number was 18 which would've put me in the army and in country...instead I got to get a job in communications....might mention a lot of people getting drafted opted to join other branches of the service to avoid the army....as an 18 year old kid from Harlem, the farmlands, east LA or the deep rural south the kids who volunteered had no clue what Viet Nam was about...didn't take long to figure it out though...

 

If only it were so easy as your wishful revisionist history depicts. The few who came out more liberal than when they went in, were more than offset by those who came out more conservative and hardbitten.

 

well we disagree....I'm friends today with many, many liberal vets of that war....Most of the council of the Oregon Country Fair is made up of peace and love ex vets....these grizzled soldiers of fortune you allude to have apparently been hiding from me since 1973 when I got out. Hell Jimi Hendrix and Jerry Garcia were vets...

 

Perhaps. However, anyone that has a shred of defense for Alex Jones or this administration, even if they served, is by definition, to me, not patriotic

 

I know UCD....he's never defended Alex Jones...I read all his posts...you're calling out the wrong guy...UCD was addressing something entirely different from what I read.

 

It's quite different in the South and Midwest.

After his discharge in the early 60s, Jimi Hendrix was for the war until he conformed to the crowd he was with in the late 60s. He is quoted as saying to an antiwar friend something like, "If we don't take of it over there, we'll have to here."

 

Those of us who lived through it know this to be true.

 

Why didn't you clarify the Vets you were talking about in the first place? I had no idea who you were talking about.

 

You guys have taught me a thing or two. Now I know that all military veterans are liberal hippies. The military has no tendency to be more conservative than the general population. In fact, they are more liberal than average. Let's inform them of this right away.

 

No one said that.

 

What’s funnier than shit is that I honestly do not know who Alex Jones is other than as some media figure. Apparently I have the innate ability to automatically ignore irrelevant crackpots? The only point I was trying to make is that those who try to ride a high horse probably should make sure their perspective is fully calibrated before taking off in a gallop.....and the very last thing I EVER claimed to be is a “patriot”. That’s just another dirty word for “nationalist” in my book.......

 

Yes.

Check out their financial sheet.

 

No, there is not.

90% of it has been removed and the rest is effectively blocked from news feeds.

Many conservative Congressional Representatives have been blocked.

"PBS is a private, nonprofit media enterprise owned by its member public television stations. PBS distributes programming to nearly 350 locally owned and operated public television stations across the country and is funded principally by these member stations and by CPB."

 

About a decade ago Jones broke the shocking story that the Feds were secretly converting many government buildings and old Walmarts into mass detention facilities. The Feds only response was that citizens should ignore him because he was a conspiracy theorist, a nut. Every media organization parroted this nonsense without even checking it out.

Now that we have discovered it’s 100% true where are the public retractions and apologies? Where are the investigations of how and why this could happen in a supposedly Free country, of the people by the people and for the people?

Jones apparently has more credibility than any of them.

 

Exactly.

A political propaganda outlet financed by a cartel of socialist-leaning station owners and other lefty billionaires.

Misrepresenting itself as an unbiased source for the people.
