34. The Gulf of Tonkin comes to mind... resulting in the death of MILLIONS....
Sat May 26, 2018, 10:15 AM
May 2018

an exaggerated incident that led to the escalation of the Vietnam Invasion and the resulting death of mass volumes of Americans and Others, and decimation of Vietnam and Cambodia, which ultimately led to even more massive volumes of deaths.

American people need to be more discerning about the media and its "profit angles" and its lust for advertising revenue, and learn facts so it can hold the respectful standards of Journalist to a high degree.

We have mess and madness now, with the gaming Trump is trying to play with N. Korea... when fact is, N. and S. Korea should move on with their peace and dual party leadership in Unification of Korea... and ignore the trump gaming, because American is not the controller of N. or S. Korea.

We have no right to act like we are "a determiner" of their agreements for peace and unification of Korea.

I believe in the merits of Justice, but a Mass Killer of Others, fits a whole different spectrum Civic Justice May 2018 #33
So who decides what murders rise to the level where summary justice by cop is justified? Demsrule86 May 2018 #39
Nobody said Murder was right, the discussion is about "those who kill kids in school". Civic Justice May 2018 #41
