Jane Fonda visiting BR this weekend
Posted on 3/3/23 at 9:14 am
Posted on 3/3/23 at 9:14 am
Just a reminder that our local YWCA will be hosting this traitor this weekend.
My father was an officer in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam era.
He wrote the following letter to the editor to the editor of the Advocate
Ladies and gentlemen,
When I read the “Jane Fonda Coming to BR for YWCA brunch” article in the February 1 edition of the Advocate I was shocked. I am a seventy seven year old Vietnam veteran. Apparently members of the YWCA committee who selected this woman to address their annual fund raiser are too young to be aware of their speakers traitorous past.
At the height of the Vietnam War Ms. Fonda went to Hanoi to offer support and comfort to our enemies. While there she was photographed sitting in a high altitude artillery piece used to shoot down our planes. At that time the North Vietnam government did not consider their conflict with the United States to be a legal war and therefore did not recognize the Geneva Convention with respect to prisoners of war.
At the time of her visit there were numerous American airmen who were POW’s. The government of North Vietnam would not even confirm to the US government who their prisoners were. While in Hanoi, Ms. Fonda visited numerous POW’s. Many of them passed small pieces of paper to her with their name, rank and serial number on it assuming she would take those papers with her and turn them over to US officials. This small act would at least confirm to their loved ones that they were alive. She took the papers and turned them over to North Vietnamese officials. As a result all were severely beaten.
I hope that the YWCA officials or board members who decided to invite this traitor to address their function were unaware of her despicable acts toward our country and its’ fighting men. I personally know several of the honorees. I am embarrassed for them that they will be forever associated with Ms. Fonda.
Shocker…it was not published
I know for a fact that he did not use the language he would have liked to use in regards to “that commie bitch”, as he has always referred to her.

Could always take out an ad
ETA: I'm going to an annual reunion of Vietnam ex-POWs in a couple of weeks, those guys have no use for her of course, but they don't let it ruin their day or lose sleep over whatever that count does, but I'll tell you this, every single urinal in that squadron has a Hanoi Jane aiming target in it, so at least the young guys are keeping aware

I know she was a piece of shite, but this is a bridge way further than just being a shithead hippie

I've seen this story before.
Posted on 3/3/23 at 9:23 am to OTIS2
Yeh but we have seen a lot of stories passed thru chain emails and such. That would be legit treason and she would have been executed before getting back stateside
I think she is big enough a piece of shite based on what it is known that she did. Throwing out stories like this make it easy for people who defend her to poke holes.

Jesus. I knew of her visit with the NVA and her outspoken views on the war, but I never knew she did dispicable shite like that.

I have read this many times. She is a celebrity and the daughter of one of America's greatest actors. She would never have been tried or executed for Treason. She got the pass. She is, however, a low-life, piece of scum, traitorous, commie birch.

she admitted she was wrong years ago. a lot of people do stupid things when they are young. exactly what else should she do to atone for her stupidity. the vietnam war was a travesty and elicited supercharged feelings from millions of americans, many which were model citizens. i agree with the feelings of those that served but it's past time to let it go.

it's one thing to let your antiwar feelings known in the proper forum, write your congressman, go to a protest march, burn your draft card, whatever, she went way over the line and deserves a hell of a lot worse than she got for her despicable actions, which really was minimal
ETA: a lot of people do stupid things when they are young.
this doesn't fly either, she tries to downplay it as being young, naive, and emotional, BS!! she was dating at the time, and eventually married Tom Hayden, of Chicago 7 fame, that was a calculated, deliberate, and despicable act

She admitted it years later. One of the many reasons why Progressives love her so much and are downvoting this thread. American soldiers were killed thanks to her actions, and that makes Progressives smile ear to ear.

Fonda was a political activist in the counterculture era during the Vietnam War. She was photographed sitting on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun on a 1972 visit to Hanoi, during which she gained the nickname "Hanoi Jane".
quote:
During the 1960s, Fonda engaged in political activism in support of the Civil Rights Movement, and in opposition to the Vietnam War. Fonda's visits to France brought her into contact with leftist French intellectuals who were opposed to war, an experience that she later characterized as "small-c communism".Along with other celebrities, she supported the Alcatraz Island occupation by American Indians in 1969, which was intended to call attention to the failures of the government with regard to treaty rights and the movement for greater Indian sovereignty.[75]
She supported Huey Newton and the Black Panthers in the early 1970s, stating: "Revolution is an act of love; we are the children of revolution, born to be rebels. It runs in our blood." She called the Black Panthers "our revolutionary vanguard ... we must support them with love, money, propaganda and risk."She has been involved in the feminist movement since the 1970s and dovetails her activism in support of civil rights.
quote:
During the course of her visit, Fonda visited American prisoners of war (POWs), and brought back messages from them to their families. When stories of torture of returning POWs were later being publicized by the Nixon administration, Fonda said that those making such claims were "hypocrites and liars and pawns", adding about the prisoners she visited, "These were not men who had been tortured. These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had been brainwashed."
quote:
In 2005, Michael A. Smith, a U.S. Navy veteran, was arrested for disorderly conduct in Kansas City, Missouri, after he spat chewing tobacco in Fonda's face during a book-signing event for her autobiography, My Life So Far. He told reporters that he "consider[ed] it a debt of honor", adding "she spit in our faces for 37 years. It was absolutely worth it. There are a lot of veterans who would love to do what I did." Fonda refused to press charges
So yes, I say "F**k you, Fonda"

She went further than
stupidity. You can not support the war and still support those fighting, instead of their enemies.

People are allowed to have differing opinions. isn’t that what he fought for?
Posted on 3/3/23 at 9:47 am to Chipand2Putts
Just a reminder that its the yWca sponsoring this and not the yMca that we all know. There is a big difference.

Posing for pictures sitting on an anti-aircraft gun used to kill American pilots goes a bit beyond a differing opinion
