Walter Cronkite's Ridiculous Spin on the 1968 Tet Offensive in South Vietnam

[Deadstick]

No one was shot for protesting.

Of course they were, shot dead by the National guard.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

It almost caused a civil war in America, when the Government start shooting Students dead for protesting at Kent State University and attacking people at the Democrat convention like they did in Chicago with extreme brutality they have crossed a line.

You are a Russophile, so no soap for you.

 

[Soupnazi630]

Of course they were, shot dead by the National guard.

Yes but not for protesting you dumbass

 

[Blaster]

Wrong

It was not a civil war. North and South Vietnam were tradiitional seperate kingdoms for hundreds or years. It was a war of communist aggression started by the north

We still had no business sending troops there.
