In the Fall of 69 the Chicago 7 trial was across the street where I worked in downtown Chicago.
I got out of the Navy in Sept 69 and this was my 1st job.
When I was discharged and returned to Chicago I was taunted and tormented by anti-war protesors and denied entrance to Nortwestern University where I wanted to study journalism.
Denied because they said being a Viet Nam Vet on campus in 1969 would be a problem.

The Trial of The Chicago Seven (or Chicago Eight)
OMG...that's HORRIBLE and beneath contempt!
