Reply #135: In the spring of 1970 the people went into the streets to protest

[whistle]

...Nixon's and Kissinger's escalation of the Vietnam War. They demonstrated in NYC, Washington DC, Los Angeles, Berkley and ultimately at Kent State University in Ohio where National Guard units fired live rounds into a crowd of students killing four and wounding nine other students. It did not bring an immediate stop to the war, and actually did not result in the ouster of Nixon in 1972, but the press and world opinion was turned against the Nixon policies on the war. Nothing will happen overnight, but if the people get into Bush's and Cheney's faces, they will back away or make disastrous blunders which will bring them down..
