A Korean War veteran who has owned a movie theater in central Kentucky for more than three decades is refusing to run The Butler due to the anti-Vietnam War stance of one of its lead actresses.

I need to find his e-mail or real address and thank him.
For yours or others use...here is his 'Movie Palace' Facebook page.
Perhaps on the return trip from the grave of the #1 traitor from that conflict - john french kerry.
I’m a Vietnam vet who heard Fonda call us `babykillers and war criminals’ on the shortwave in 1972. We could feel & see how NVA morale was strengthened by her treasonous words broadcast from Hanoi.

Bravo to this theater owner. Just like the restaurant owner years ago who refused to let Fonda enter after she bellowed, “Do you know who I am!!!?”
He replied, “Yes, I know who you are and you are not welcome here.”
I will rejoice at the news of the death of Jane Fonda.
I intend to eat a lot of chili beans with jalapenos and drink a lot of beer about 18 hours before I visit both their graves.
I want to not just piss on them, but give each one a big steaming pile of what I think they both are.
I’ll do a large baked bean supper prior to my visit.
FWIW, Elizabethtown or “E Town” is not far from Ft.Campbell,KY.
Plus this movie is mostly fiction.Loosely based on a ‘true story’.
His mom was never raped, his kid doesn’t die in Vietnam,etc,etc. If that’s a spoiler, tough shiite.
LMAO Thank you for your Service Soldier.
And thank you for your service!
We were up in I Corp and the B-52’s she wanted to shoot down helped us on more than one occasion.
