...worry, people, because someday this war is going to be over, and half a million angry men are going to descend on the 50 states with dreams of homes and families and education and jobs. And when they hit the campuses, I sincerely hope that someone tries to stop a Marine "leg" from going to class, or that some sorry, smelly, social reject tries to plant a Viet Cong cross next to the artificial leg of a Seabee, or spits in the burned face of an Army medic.

Such interruptions would have to be brief and stop well short of violence and the threat of violence, both of which would presumably remain subject to severe sanctions. It is obviously impossible to predict that such an accommodation would work, or even that there would be a serious effort to find one and make it work. All that...
