Rockfish, i'm sure those guys were telling the truth. Just because i never heard about this doesn't mean a thing. I left in December 67, so that was 6 years later. Those little slant eyes were sneaky little things so you had to watch were you stepped. The Vietnamese placed a greater value on their water buffalo than their children. What was popular in my time, especially in the Saigon area, was the VC would throw a grenade(bomb) into a bar full of GI's.

Can't say I saw any of this but we were warned not to trust even the children there and I heard plenty of stories.

My heart sunk when I heard about this. That isn't human.

How do we describe the man and his father who just sodomized and killeg a the six years old Barrio child with the help of the mother? This goes on all the time in this country because we are democracy the sometimes only get a slap on the wrist. What was done to the children in Iraq were more humane that what we do here to our children. That is what I mean about getting rid of one monster and replacing him with many more. We all have monsters and have actrocies committed by our people.
I am not excusing what was done to the children in Iraq, but sometime it happens so often here that we have become sensitized.
