All of these Oregon Viet Nam veterans had dreams as children,
none of those dreams included dying for Wall Street.
Over 58,000 Americans nationwide took their last breath for profit.
The U.S. Economy Can't Make a Killing off of Peace.
Betrayal is the last bullet in the chamber.
It is the great truth that has great silence.
One day while I was on a bunker in Viet Nam,
a sniper round went over my head.
The person who fired that weapon was not a terrorist,
a rebel, an extremist, or a so-called insurgent.
The Vietnamese individual who tried to kill me was a
citizen of Viet Nam who did not want me in HIS country.
This truth escapes millions.
