    Nowadays. It wasn't that long ago that people of certain ideological orientations were spitting in the faces of veterans returning home from overseas and calling them "baby killers".

    We should always remember this. It's one of the many horrors that veterans had to experience.

    Thank you to all our men and women veterans, and in special recognition to the 1,136,658 Gulf war veterans (1990-1991); perhaps the most efficient war in U.S. history, but mostly forgotten today.

    Yep and a bunch of soldiers shot a bunch of unarmed college kids dead.

    But only hateful, narrow minded bigots focus on a few bad acts and try to demonize an entire group of people with it.

    If the idiots at Kent State had not resorted to violence, no one would have been shot.


    A LOT MORE than "FOUR" Vietnam Vets were abused upon returning home. A LOT MORE.
