[IMG]http://picturesfromearth.com/travel/plog-content/thumbs/1/cambodia/large/359-khmer-rouge-victims.jpg[/IMG] Pictures of victims from Cambodia's Genocide due to Khmer Rouge. Of 14,000 people in the S-21 Prison only 21 survived. Most went to the killing fields, and atleast 1/5th of the population of Cambodia was killed. A personal story now. My family is Cambodian and they fled to the U.S. during the Khmer Rouge's genocide. My dad was around 7 years-old as my Aunt told me. They had to go through the Cambodian Jungles avoiding the Khmer Rouge patrols, at one point they were caught, but my family knew the man leading the patrol and he told them that he was going to let them go, so he created a diversion for them to his commanding officer to avoid the area my family was in. This created enough time for them to go to Thailand which they stood there in the refugee camp until they were able to go to the U.S. Myself I could not believe how lucky they were if they were caught by any other person in the jungle they would have been outright killed and I doubt I would be here today...
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;37184474]What happened to posting photos that shook the world?[/QUOTE] We still post important historical moments, as well as the posters who have contributed stories about their relatives who have served in war. The thread still serves a purpose.

Does anyone have a link to the image from the place where the US first started developing nuclear weapons? (I think that's what it is, I can't remember) It has a sign that's like "What you see here, what you do here, let it stay here."

Looks like it was a sign at Oak Ridge, where we were enriching the uranium. [img]http://bookofjoe.typepad.com/.a/6a00d8341c5dea53ef0167640a9c7b970b-pi[/img]
Feynman has some pretty cool stories of what went down at Los Alamos

I don't know if anyone's posted this yet, but it's the Rodney King beating. [url=http://postimage.org/image/svvpv2cgz/][img]http://s13.postimage.org/svvpv2cgz/King_video_beating_AP9103021300_620x350.jpg[/img][/url]

[QUOTE=Jericho_Rus;37292038]um do you even know why they're there? I just want to see if you people get the right info about those cunts.[/QUOTE] I don't really know dick about what's happening, could you tell?
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;37292460]I don't really know dick about what's happening, could you tell?[/QUOTE] They entered a church in Russia with balaclavas and did a song that basically protested against Putin and the Church's relationship with him. They were arrested and now have been charged with 'hooliganism', kind of a good show of how hard Putin is cracking the whip against opposers of his regime. However, I believe they were in the wrong about their way to protest. You don't interrupt service with masks on and play music to those there to do their business.
