I wonder 1/22/2014 12:27:48 PM
Where are they now? I was pondering the other day, (always dangerous) and I wondered where were all the war protesters that we had in the Viet-Nam era?
No students marching, no SDS, No campus riots, no anti government slogans on the walls. Today it seems like one big pep rally for our troops, both going and coming home.
It took a few days wondering about this and then one morning it hit me. These days there is no draft. No one forced into the military who doesn't want to go. This left me wondering again if they reinstituted a draft how fast the sentiment about this useless war would turn around?
Now no one really cares because it ain't them going off to war.
