re: #158 Big Beautiful Door

There were ordinary people who worked with the US Army and the South Vietnamese government who were promised transport out then casually abandoned. Your statement is a rationalization of our shameful treatment of them.

A playwright friend of mine wrote about the generation of Vietnamese who fled. He was deeply surprised on the attitudes and opinions of his parents and their friends, as well as many others of that generation.

Yes, much of that government was corrupt, but…so is much of our current government. I think Americans are much too American centered when it comes to Vietnam and its people.
