Assembly’s Vote on Tom Hayden
There are many valid questions to be asked about our participation in the Vietnam conflict, but few easy answers. One valid question may be whether or not the conduct of Tom Hayden and other conscientious objectors was traitorous to the United States. Another valid and greater question is whether or not the conduct of Gil Ferguson and other veterans of that controversial and unfortunate war were traitors to humanity.
