Eventually the us gave up butchering people in Vietnam.
Did we, though? We've been at war almost continuously since then.
more like gave up getting butchered.
just over 58,000 American dead vs. roughly 2 to 4 million Vietnamese dead (depending on how you count the casualties). I'd say they did a lot more butchering than they received.
yes I agree, but the number of dead Vietnamese was not the reason for the war's unpopularity in the USA.
