>It was a national disgrace how returning soldiers were treated in that war. Even those who didn't like the war should have treated the poor souls who had to fight it with respect.
Luckily, it never happened. It is a common myth, launched by the same kitchen that launches other myths about the left. It was debunked long ago - no soldiers returning from Vietnam were spat on or undignified in any similar manner.
Yet the story gets repeated. Is it on me to find the debunks?
