In the mid/late 1980s I did a bit of travelling in the US to talk, organize, and put a brake on the Central American Wars. At one point I was in Carbondale, IL, in a church basement, the topic was Nicaragua and the death of Ben Linder.
During Q & A an older woman stood up in the back and asked, aggressively, "Is it true the Sahv-yets are sending guns to Nicaragua?"
"Yes," I responded.
"Well GOOD," she continued, "cause if they don't, how the hell they supposed to defend themselves?"
