it worked SOOOO well in Vietnam...:roll:

Depends how you view the photo.

From the (admittedly not in-depth) reading I've done on it, the prisoner was allegedly part of a spy platoon that targeted police officers and their families for assassination. The man wielding the gun happens to be the national police chief. At the time the photo was taken ('68), the Tet Offensive had begun and the outer concentric rings of Saigon were being tested.

So a full-blown war is happening right in your city, which you're losing, and you have a member of an assassination squad that's targeting your subordinates and their families brought to you. What would you do?

I don't know, BoomerD, I know you served in Vietnam, or claimed to have, but trying to open up closed wounds is not the best thing to do.

First off, the photo was meant as a semi-humorous solution to the OP's problem...(bust a cap in his ass)

Next, for many of us old-timers, the wounds have never healed...I'm admittedly not quite as vehemently anti-Vietnamese as I once was, but I'll never spend a dime of my money on any product made there...nor do I spend any of my money on goods made in Communist countries when I have any choice. (think China and electronics)

The Cold war may be over on its face, but it's shifted to an economic war...and we're getting our asses kicked.
