A Question That Kinda Scares Me
« on: July 14, 2020, 04:31:29 pm »
A question has popped into my head this morning an' it kinda scares me.

When the Sturmabteilung an Sock Monkey's Waffen SchutzStaffel finish removing the monuments, will they come after the veterans next?

@bigheadfred

Shame on you for defaming the Affirmative Action Air Force! Don't you know they are the only reason we won WW-2?

Why,I even read a news report that not a single bomber they flew escort for was shot down!

Which kinda leaves me wondering what the families of the ones that were buried think about their relatives being buried alive.

Then again,they were crackas and honkies,nobody important.

I'm not so sure. How many of these asshats even know who the Red Tails were? They went after the memorial to the 54th Mass. in Boston, after all.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The Red Tails may very well end up being the new name of the "Football team" located in Washington DeeCee.

Most of them wouldn't know true history until they were about 2 seconds from being history.

@Smokin Joe

Well,there was a black exploitation flick about the Red Tails,with an almost all-black cast of big names.

I even watched it myself. Maybe not THE biggest bunch of crap ever put out by Hollywood,but it was a contender.

For example,did you know that black pilots were so good there was NEVER a bomber they escorted that got shot down by the Germans?

Implying,of course,they were SOOO much better than the cracka pilots,who had bombers they were escorting shot down all the time.

I never did hear an explanation on how black fighter pilots could keep AA fire from hitting the bombers,so I am guessing it was "Black Magic".

That whole movie should have been kicked off by the words "Once upon a time......",like all good fairy tales.

Yeah, I caught all that, but it was just to intensify the SJW angle about how badly treated those pilots were when they mustered out.

The people who propagate myths like this are doing the vets they are trying to deify a huge disservice. Their record shows that once they began escorting raids those guys did no better or worse than other fighter groups.

Instead, in the future those who investigate, instead of honoring them for their service, will conclude the Red Tails fudged their record.

The 'never lost a bomber' myth Originated with a 1945 magazine article in Liberty magazine by Roi Ottley, and was further promoted in a newspaper article in the Chicago Defender. Those articles hit the newsstands before the official tally could be released.source
 
Whenever media or Hollywood are involved, the most likely sources of inaccuracy are the media or Hollywood, themselves.

The vets get a pass, imho.

@skeeter

You are assuming,of course,that future historians will be able to conclude anything.

I'm not so sure of that.

I get your point, but no matter how hard the left tries to scrub the record these days once info is in the public domain it will forever be there for those who look.
