32. Hmmm, not exactly true...
Rolling Thunder is non-profit group which claims its goals are to publicize POW/MIA issues and support vets of all wars. It predates the Iraq war. You do not have to be a vet to join. Its membership is focused on MC riders. Most are the stereotypical black leather wearing flag slathered kind though all makes and attire are welcome. Do not call them bikers...that has particular meaning in the MC community, and RT does not qualify.

They claim that anti war demonstrators defaced the Vietnam Memorial in January and organized a counter demonstration for this weekend. This is not to be confused with the annual Rolling Thunder Rally which is Memorial Day weekend in DC.

Monkeyman is telling a story about a supposed conflict in a bar near Walter Reed. I choose not to believe him until independent sources confirm it. By that nature of the story he spun that would not be possible. Read his prior threads about this and make up your own mind. Bluntly, the simian and the minor have no credibility with me.
