Are El Paso and Dayton the new Vietnam?
I must admit the mass shootings this past weekend are frightening. Admittedly, I am a little shook up about it. Granted, maybe I am watching too much news coverage. I try to keep you apprised on my news channels on Facebook. You can follow them at John Daly News or informed not inflamed.
But it’s hard to ignore or stash away to a comfortable spot in your mind that so many people were killed so quickly for no reason. It made me think back to the late 1960s when I was a teenager. And frankly, that time was scary too.
We were living with a number of political assassinations. There were militant groups on the rise.
The nation seemed like it was coming apart.
What seemed to galvanize a majority of Americans was the Vietnam war -- or of the groundswell to end the war.
