A bunch of crybabies because you want a fee handout. You don't know the reality of a war. You believe what you hear and see on the television. How many young American soldiers gave their lives and their opportunity to savor the freedom of this country. Now you come to American and cry about how unfair things are. It's your people that think this way that makes our efforts appear to be in vain. I believed that I was there to make freedom a possibility for the Vietnamese people. When I hear complaint's such as yours, I wish we left you there to die. Then you could be under a Communist dictatorship wishing you were here in the USA. All I see and hear is that Vietnamese gangs are killing, extorting and robbing people. Now you have brought the war to this country. Always looking for the easy way! You should get off your ass and become a successful and productive citizen. If this is not your choice; then you are a drain our society and should leave.... Yes, you have a choice and one is that you can leave this country. So why don't you if you don't like it? THIS COUNTRY WON'T FORCE ANYBODY TO STAY IN THIS COUNTRY LIKE THE COMMUNISTS DO.
