Local Maryland Gov't Vietnam Memorial honoring Viet Cong
Montgomery County Gov't Building | 27 Oct 2014 | 11th_VA

How low can we go

In Montgomery County, Maryland, they have a Vietnam Veterans Memorial at a local Gov't building (dis)honoring Americans and Honoring Communist VC. In the photo below, the Vietnam Vet hat is on a shelf with a copy of the "Pentagon Papers".

On the shelf below, is a worn out American flag sitting next to a pair of dirty VC slippers (a sign of disrespect in many cultures) with the inscription, "Vietnam Vet worn 'Ho Chi Minh Sandals," with a short narrative how the Ho Chi Minh trail was used to supply VC.

I don’t really see that. Sorry.

Also, where are the sandals next to the flag? Is that peg thing one of those “sandal” pieces? It is above, and way above.

If it seems disrespectful, make a comment to whomever may be in charge of it. Pointing it out (and many people are ignorant, believe me) may prompt them to make a simple change.

Of course, this IS Monty County, full of DC Fed limo liberals with white guilt.

I "lived" in the LIB/DIM hellhole monkey county MD ( THE Freak state) for over 30 years...before escaping. This kind of degeneracy bis common there. They are truly insane there. There is no hope for them. Escape while you can.

Somebody is suffering from a slap-insufficiency I would dearly like to remedy personally.

It appears that flag may be at the end of its useful life and should be burned respectfully. Doing so while destroying that abomination is a high form of respect, IMHO.

This "memorial" is the product of the same confused society that memorializes the Washington State High School Shooter right next to his victims.

For those of us who are Christians, shall we have a side-altar at our Good Friday services recognizing the efforts of Judas Iscariot?

A folded U.S. Flag at the bottom of the display? A display that appears to exalt the the author of the Pentagon Papers over the sacrifice of more than 58,000 American men and women to liberate the Vietnamese people from Communism.

I live near Rockville - if I happen to see that abomination, I can't promise I won't take action!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.
