No, John, I do not question your wife’s veracity. I even mentioned in my post that most likely an example of what you claim could be dredged up. It’s a big country and all sorts of things happen and have happened, including on college campuses. But, as you so often do, you make an isolated pronouncement and serve it up as an unqualified universal truth. And your statement “teachers on American campuses were forbidden to discuss the Vietnam war” is just such an inaccurate and gross generalization. Your wife’s experience was not the norm during the late 1960s on college campuses across this country. Quite the contrary.

Richard
