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.
The fall of Saigon took a long time to happen then happened very quickly. To the very last minute we were pulling people off the embassy roof and taking them to the airport. You may see that as “casually abandoned.” I don’t.
