Well, I'm also in no mood of re-reading what was posted either thank you!

Good for you.  But I've known people at a very, very personal level that was
  executed for an attempt to overthrow the government and quote from a viet-
  namese newspaper at the time "...Te^n XXXXX va` te^n YYYYYY dda~ tha`nh 
  la^.p dde^'n khung su* ddoa`n vo*'i du*. ddi.nh cho^'ng ddo^'i ca'ch ma.ng
  dda~ ....." executed of course.  So, base on your belief this would cause
  an effect "well above and beyond" my measurement, but then since my coming
  here there'd been nothing said about the event both among foreigners and 
  vietnamese...  The effects I know of so far had been on the families of the 
  deceased!!!

Are you telling me that someone had actually answered the question?  How
could it be answered since there'd been all hypothetical questions?

What, are you going to judge myself to death?  And if we were to wait for it
to become mature then what is there left to debate about???

Oh, thank you.  You finally have something said that is meaningful.  And you're
absolutely right the communists have always been suppressive without the need
for any reasons... And you know what happened to the families of the above
two brave men?  They were forced to - vu`ng Kinh Te^' Mo*'i - and all their
possesions taken away - is this not an extraneous suppressiveness by the 
government????

Thanks but no thanks.

Please don't hesitate in making judgements about my thinking/opinion.  It 
tends to build characters on my part.
