"They are the body and the soul. They are people nobody cares about from towns nobody's heard about, they got nothing...and it is them who are fighting for our freedom, sick, isn't it?" Charlie Sheen in Platoon.
The majority of men who fought in Vietnam were poor men who were obliged to go there, many of them were South American or black, they talked about their homes as if they were paradise, no matter if they suffered the effects of racism there. When these men came back, they saw how the society put them away and insulted them, is this fair? I'm not gonna talk about if war is legitimate or not, I'm just gonna talk about how we should behave with this people, no matter if we support the war or not. Just think about it, there are many people who have their heads so down looking at their food, beer, belly buttom that they don't realize this, moreover, they even dare to critize something they haven't experienced or know about.
