You know there were lots of young American's who went to Vietnam, they were scared, they didn't believe in the war, but they went because they were asked too. there's already a monument to those soldiers.
I personally don't agree with Draft Dodgers, it didn't take any kind of bravery to flee to Canada. It would have taken bravery to go and serve, or to refuse and face the music.
These people were gutless to me, and in the end it wasn't about a political statement, it was about not being willing to take the chance of serving.
the fact that this is being done in Canada disgusts me even more, it figures that our country would salute a bunch of cowards. Hey maybe next week we can build a monument to purse snatchers.
