2. 50k + US troops died in that war.
God knows how many Vietnamese died.
And now the "Miss Universe" contest is live in Viet Nam.
What the fuck were we thinking?!

3. Cutting & Running
too bad it took so long to do it!

I loved watching it - it showed how beautiful Vietnam has become again after we destroyed it. Of course they didn't mention the USA's history w/ Vietnam in the clips showing the cities nor the famous Mekong Delta.

BTW Miss Venezuela won.

6. For the record, I think beauty contests are the epitiome of patriarchal bullshit
That said, I don't have a big problem with one being held in Vietnam. It's kind of weirdly ironic, actually. :shrug:
