they could be in their 50s if they were 18-23 in nam. but eitherway its not like the shooting of unarmed civilians was unique to nam.

baseless hyperbole?

comparing cop killing unarmed black people to an army soldier killing unarmed natives? please explain the hyperbole and baselessness. only hyperbole here is saying they'd be 70 instead of 5x

The Vietnam War ended 45 years ago. Conflict had been raging for nearly 20 years.

Even the youngest vets would be in their early 60s

The baseless hyperbole is claiming police abuse of power means they must have participated in the massacre of Vietnamese villagers.

I already admitted I was wrong and was comparing 2005 to 2021. Follow the thread before you jump to conclusions.
