i had to go to this equipment rental place in the middle-of-nowhere-turn-left and the guy running this franchise (not well) had his entire office/dining room absolutely coated with john wayne patriotic bullshit, bric-a-brac and tchotchkies. like super intense.

i wanted to tell him john wayne was a mean drunk and coward that dodged the war against fascists by hiding in movie lots in burbank, only playing soldier and a hardcase for cameras while naming names to black list coworkers and being gung-ho for vietnam. and that the only "enemy" he ever charged was a native american woman half his size.
