It's interesting to see how these peaceful citizens were viewed and treated by the media and the government. 40 some years later, we are doing a lot of business with the forgiving Vietnamese.
wainuiboy74 far fewer Americans are protesting against the Iraq war because most of them are not directly affected by it, since there is no longer a military draft.
After Vietnam, wealthy Americans vowed never to allow their sons to be put in harm's way again. So they repealed the military draft and structured the political economy in such a manner that the only viable, legal career option available for its ambitious rural and urban poor is to join the 'all volunteer' Armed Forces.
there aren't that many people that still support it. The reason we don't see this type of stuff today is because of a difference in culture, the way we think. Free rights movements were just being implemented back then today we don't see it as a big change, kinda a been there dine that thing.
Some are, but the ones that go against the grain are labelled anti-democratic or anti-American. They are labelled as people opposed to freedom.
The truth is anyone who goes to war or advocates war is against freedom. Anyone who is willing to kill or advocate killing of any human life is spreading hate and violence.
oh yea they were really peaceful and respecting. right as my grandfather got off the bus home after he Volentarily went to serve, they spit on him and disrespected him.
War is not a virus. It is not something that just happens despite preventative measures. War is a choice. WE should have the choice - who have we surrendered our choice to, and at what cost? I hope passion like this still survives today and I also hope if will finally rear it's head in masses.
I have never heard a news reporter use the term 'beatnicks' before.
