It is pretty much the same actually.
Disenchanted youth striking out against the powers that be.
Our generation stopped a war through non-violent protest...I don't believe that the youth of today even know why they are protesting.
Watergate stopped the war. Don't overstimate the youth, no one listened them as always.

I agree that the Watergate scandal (1972) aided in ending the war. Still, it took another 3 years when the last helicopter lifted from the American Embassy roof to bring the war (1 November 1955 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975) to a close.

1972 Chicago.
went to my first protests in '69.
I have protested in seven different decades.

In 1969 I was on my way to boot camp.

I forget how much older you are..
I was a kid hanging out with the older kids who hung out with the radicals.
Yeah Vietnam protesters like the Catonsville Nine or the Weather Underground were never violent :rollseyes:
The Catonsville Nine were religious zealots, not Hippies. The Weather Underground were politically naive rich kids who in the end failed terribly. Currently, the son of one of them who died in prison is a left-wing DA in California letting a city burn, also not a Hippie.
Chesa Boudin was recalled actually. He was just too messed up for SF (which is saying something).
Yes. I could not think of his name. His mother did not die in prison as I thought and lived to see her son become a DA in San Francisco
