What is Treason?

From Shannon J. Gibson, on Mon, 30 Oct 2000 22:54:41 GMT (in response to: "Treason")

What is Treason Joe N.. First of all I don't trust anybody who is afraid to put his name on his words. But is it treason to want to help people who can't help themselves? Is it Unjust or treason to want to stop the slaughter of people who can't defend themselves? Is it Joe N.? Is it treason to have the compassion to want to stop the disembowlment of villagers that their only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and to stop the people that are doing this? Because the people (I use that term loosely) that are doing that are doing it just to put a fear into other villagers. Is that right Joe N.? Where were you when these things were happening? If you had seen these things would you have tried to stop them. I was 19 when I was drafted and was sent to Viet Nam. I was much older when I returned. Look up what was happening in the neihboring countries Cambodia and Laos. Those were the same things that would have happend in Viet Nam if we (the children sent to Viet Nam) were not there. war is Hell Joe N. and terrible things happen on both side. But one thing you lack Joe N. is the ability to choose the lesser. I opened My eyes after I saw with those same eyes the terrible things that N. Viet Nam and China were doing to the people of S. Viet Nam. It is time for you to open your eyes Joe N.
