You might want to re-read the post as I did not say that - however unless you have been totally brainwashed by the history books and news media the only reason there was a my lai in the papers and news was it was the only one that made the news - happened almost every day - just didnt get the coverage. So they made a few Lt.s in the military take the blame for it and the media had their news to rally the anti-war protesters.
If you were alive back then and lived through it as well as having your best friends heads blown off by kids grenades you might have a little different attitude - but then I guess I'm just a moron for having lived through it
