Not mentioned within the photo posted by OP is the fact that the protesters were disrupting a National Vietnam War Veterans Day commemoration, an event for honoring the "bravery" and "sacrifice" of the US soldiers who are responsible for causing an overwhelming amount of pain, suffering and death in Vietnam. It's honestly just so fucking crazy that right before the departure of a US naval ship to go support a genocide, they're celebrating the so called heroes of one of the most disgusting wars perpetrated by the United States in the 20th century.
