the m14's were beat by ak47's

2020-02-13 19:28:31 UTC  

That's just bullcrap buddy, the US was barely using 10% of its power waging war on vietnam.

2020-02-13 19:28:38 UTC  

Yeah Khalid is right

2020-02-13 19:28:44 UTC  

The US did absolutely dominate the battles

2020-02-13 19:28:51 UTC  

They just couldn't continue without support of the people

2020-02-13 19:28:51 UTC  

I mean did you see the casualties? Not even close.

2020-02-13 19:29:04 UTC  

but we still did not support the war

2020-02-13 19:29:07 UTC  

and overall it was bad

2020-02-13 19:29:09 UTC  

> the m16a1 had issues with the buffers not taking the climate well
Wrong maintenance was the problem IIRC

2020-02-13 19:29:23 UTC  

that was after the buffer issue was resolved

2020-02-13 19:29:44 UTC  

We had better equipment, better training(less so for the drafters), better strategies

2020-02-13 19:29:49 UTC  

the first versions of the m16 actually had issues with the buffer tubes once the m14 were nearly phased out they went and fixed that issue

2020-02-13 19:30:40 UTC  

in some respects I think Vietnam was a win: we prevented the USSR influence

2020-02-13 19:30:46 UTC  

It definitely was a military win.

2020-02-13 19:31:05 UTC  

technically yes

2020-02-13 19:31:09 UTC  

and it was a show of power

2020-02-13 19:31:09 UTC  

the US was in a better position overall strategically and logistically speaking, but there was no point for the war to continue, it was obvious viet's didn't want them there and even if they won and managed to occupy vietnam it would cost too much to maintain their presence.

2020-02-13 19:31:24 UTC  

And that too, USSR realised America would go to the wall.

2020-02-13 19:32:03 UTC  

but how I see it i'll vote for anti-war politicians

2020-02-13 19:32:05 UTC  

I do not want more wars

2020-02-13 19:32:16 UTC  

Vote for bernie

2020-02-13 19:32:20 UTC  

no

2020-02-13 19:32:25 UTC  

why not

2020-02-13 19:32:37 UTC  

Bernie is the best candidate

2020-02-13 19:32:40 UTC  

bernie has socialist ideals and im very much against his policies on healthcare and college

2020-02-13 19:32:58 UTC  

Sanders is quite bad.

2020-02-13 19:33:16 UTC  

This is the guy who wants to politicise the fed by adding farmers to the board.

2020-02-13 19:33:36 UTC  

Democratic socialism isn't bad

2020-02-13 19:33:57 UTC  

I disagree

2020-02-13 19:34:06 UTC  

I will see any form of socialism as bad

2020-02-13 19:34:11 UTC  

You're programmed to perceive the word "socialism" as bad, when you dont even understand it.

2020-02-13 19:34:11 UTC  

i'd rather die

2020-02-13 19:34:18 UTC  

I don't want to debate the word

2020-02-13 19:34:22 UTC  

I rather debate policies

2020-02-13 19:34:30 UTC  

For example, Sanders wants to raise the corporate tax: bad idea.

2020-02-13 19:34:32 UTC  

socialism has failed

2020-02-13 19:34:37 UTC  

everywhere it has gone

2020-02-13 19:34:38 UTC  

Nope, very good idea

2020-02-13 19:34:39 UTC  

it has failed

2020-02-13 19:34:47 UTC  

look at venezuela

2020-02-13 19:34:53 UTC  

Yes, keep regurgitating the same phrases over and over again.
