You have to wonder...

...sometimes, what the hell some people are thinking. Someone thought this was a good idea? Maybe nice for the kiddies to celebrate the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians? WTF is wrong with some people?


Atomic bomb attack on Japan re-enactment dropped from Ohio air show after online protest - The Washington Post

Why the fuck would you want to stage a re-enactment of a bombing that killed tens of thousands of people?

Yeah, this is sick, and I'm glad they dropped it.

 

[Oldguy]

It's an historical fact and a re-creation of it would be educational and a perfectly valid undertaking.

What's next? Will the PC crowd force the Civil War re-enactors at Gettysburg to let the Confederates win to keep from offending southerner's?

ps: "Fifi" flew right over my house the other day. I could hear it coming for 2 or 3 minutes before it got here. Just imagine what 1000 of them sounded like!

How about a re-enactment of the 9/11 attacks? How about a re-enactment of the Boston Marathon bombings? What about a re-enactment of the 2004 Tsunami?

All are educational, are they not?

It doesn't celebrate death, it celebrates victory. The Japs attacked US, we didn't attack them.

It doesn't celebrate death, it celebrates victory. .

NO, a reenactment of the signing of surrender documents on the deck of the USS Missouri would have celebrated that. Playing games about the killing of hundreds of thousands of civilians is just ghoulish and stupid.

You mean like all the Revolutionary and civil war reenactments we have here?

 

[Swagger]

They reenact the Holocaust for dramatic purposes all the time. Why's this so different? I mean, it did have an audience, didn't it?

 

[Truthseeker420]

a historic event that helped end the war and save lives that would have been lost if the war had been prolonged.

I see they didn't drop the bs propaganda.

Oh yeah, that would be real entertaining.

I see they are still espousing this historical revisionism bs.

That's incorrect. The Japanese gov't attacked us and instead of attacking their leadership back, we took it out on their innocent citizens in the most disproportionate response in human history.

That's a terrible fiction that we really need to stop repeating. (And, yes, I realize the usual suspects will go to pieces, falling all over each other to repeat exactly that fiction.)

Whether its WWII or the Revolution, there's nothing educational in pretending to re-kill people. There are plenty of other things that could be re-created to teach about a given time.

A good way to remind those Jap bastards and the rest of the world that if they fuck with the USA they will get an atomic boot in the ass.

General Tojo and Emperor Hirohito flew the Zeros which struck Pearl Harbor? WOW the things you learn on internet message boards.

Were they also they ones who chopped off the heads of innocent Chinese civilians during the Rape of Nanking? Or killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Chinese civilians in the aftermath of the Doolittle Raid? I bet they were also the ones that shot our captured soldiers during the Bataan Death March...

And, just as we see today, there are some who celebrate the needless killing of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians in The Bush Folly.

(Even while they yammer against the killing of very few innocents by drones. Go figure.)

I didn't know we bombed General Tojo and Emperor Hirohito and yadda yadda.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge ...............................

The bombing of Japan was the last time we actually conducted a war correctly. None of this pinprick then be my friend bullshit

The death toll from WWII pales in comparison to the infanticide we carry out through abortion in this country.
