Anti-Vietnam Protest

Antiwar demonstrators protest in Central Park, march to UN building, included students and hippies and priests and nuns, burn draft cards, shouted confrontations with anti-antiwar marchers, prowar signs, Martin Luther King leads procession; another march in downtown San Francisco down Market Street to stadium, sponsored by loose coalition of left-wing anti-war groups, "President Johnson meanwhile let it be known that the FBI is closely watching all anti-war activity."- violence in Rome in night demonstration near US embassy, water jets used (partial newsreel)

I'm curious, all you who support the war or strangely still think it was a good idea or could have been won. Please fill in the blank with a beneficial foreign policy event.
The Vietnam war was worth it because if the US had won the war, then "X" would have occurred.

@NashvillePredators30 There is no conflict in respecting the people who died there and realizing that the war was useless. I'm not "pissing on everything" when I ask if you realize that Vietnam won that war and it actually didn't affect our freedom even one tiny bit? But that the war did take away the freedom of 60,000+ Americans and 2,000,000 Vietnamese?

In fact the us was even the one whom helped shipped French soldiers to suppress Vietnam. Vietnam had been a country that was suppress by other countries and wanted to seek its freedom and independence. Becuase democracy and us abandon it had no choice but turn to communism and soon allied its self with the soviet union whom help it achieve freedom. Communist Vietnam had soon defeated its France suppressor and at a conference a treaty was made to end the war but also had split the country into 2

@NashvillePredators30 Puppet soldiers, who can't even use their brain for a second in their entire life always think they are the heroes just because they are able to hold the guns and pull the triggers for the sake of .... well they don't even know. Have you ever seen a cockfight or a dog fight? I bet you can't even connect the dots.

@cpenter No matter if you believe the cause of the war is worthwhile, I agree that it was still uncalled for to spit on the returning soldiers who have unwillingly (for the most part) risked their lives.

@NashvillePredators30

Someone like you should be smart enough to know one thing: In America, people have a RIGHT to their opinions....even if that means protesting the government. To say they should "GTFO" only shows that you have no idea why you fought "for" this country.

@NashvillePredators30 Vietnam War did NOT MAKE THIS A BETTER WORLD. It caused the deaths of innocent people. Americans have the right, in a democracy, to protest against what they view as unjust.
