...Panthers make little secret of stockpiling arms; where it is legal, they brandish them in public. "Off the pigs"-kill the police-is a frequent Panther refrain. What the Panthers view as an extermination plot, says one federal official, is the human response of a cop confronted by someone who has publicly vowed to kill him. "That's no plot," the official says. "It's a perfectly natural reaction by a policeman facing someone who has said, even boasted, that he is prepared to shoot it out."

In the light of My Lai, Americans have little cause for feeling self-righteous, and much reason for self-reflection. The massacre...
...least a narrow range of subjects with intelligence and even insight. On the David Frost Show, for example, she scored a valid point in defense of romantic love when she described the female mind as "an erogenous zone." But her observations get lost in her incessant chatter and frequent malapropisms. For a time she referred to things she found attractive as "gauche" until she finally learned that the word she wanted was "chic." Editing one of her own lines in Myra, she struck out the word "germane" and substituted "superfluous...
