A Vietnam vet who probably still thinks the rice farmers he killed deserved it and a NYPD cop. Think I’ll take AOC on this one.

Can you democrats get any more disrespectful? You punk assed bitch you wouldn't dare say that to the face of the veterans I know. They would kick you internet tough guy ass for saying disrespectful things like that about our veterans. My guess is it was your parents spitting on returning soldiers.

Returning Vietnam vets getting spit on by lefties is an urban legend meant to shift the blame from the older veterans and vet organizations that let them down.

Nobody can possibly be this stupid.

I told her that, on the contrary, opponents of the war had actually tried to recruit returning veterans. I told her about a 1971 Harris Poll survey that found that 99 percent of veterans said their reception from friends and family had been friendly, and 94 percent said their reception from age-group peers, the population most likely to have included the spitters, was friendly.

A follow-up poll, conducted in 1979 for the Veterans Administration (now the Department of Veterans Affairs), reported that former antiwar activists had warmer feelings toward Vietnam veterans than toward congressional leaders or even their erstwhile fellow travelers in the movement.

So fake news go all the way back to the 70s.

This doesn’t read as you may think it does Mercer Island. All this says is that A: If a vet returned home and was a friend or family member of a dirty hippy, they didn’t spit on him/her. B: It says that spitting hippies favor vets that returned home over Congress.

This article does nothing to support your indoctrinated bullshit that protesters didn’t spit on returning vets and call them baby killers.

Indoctrination is believing the spitting hippie urban legend without any contemporaneous supporting evidence. All you have is vets claiming mistreatment decades later and exposing the fabrications in the process. But it’s a convenient way to blame the left for “undermining” the war effort in Vietnam that was doomed from the start. Clearly you’re dumb enough to fall for it.

I served just post Vietnam. The disrespect and stigma was very real even towards me.

I wouldn't waste your time. He is either a troll or so stupid it would make Forrest Gump sad. Either way, there is no helping he/she/ze/ve/they.

The disrespect and stigma came largely from WWII vets who looked down on Vietnam vets for their failures in the war. Not the anti-war left. And there were plenty of right-wing efforts to divide returning vets from the anti-war left by blaming them for “losing the war at home”. The tale of the hippie spitting on returning vets in airports rendering it necessary to change in to civilian clothing is an urban myth that began in the ‘80s.

That's a good Kunt, just maintain the lie. So despite the fact that there are news articles from the 1970s detailing spitting incidents, according to HC the dumbfuck it's all a myth that started in the 80s.

Not sure where you read this narrative, I have taken care of Vets for quite sometime and have never witnessed one Vet disrespecting another based on what war they served in.
