The majority of people who, at the time, believed that the war in Vietnam was immoral, generally also "believed" that war itself was "immoral." All wars in US history have been protested by it's citizens. A big example was the Mexican War of 1846-1848, in which the present states of California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, were taken to become part of the United States of America. President Polk was afronted by heavy anti-war protests during that war. The settling of the US Frontier by the US Cavalry, the US Civil War, all had protesters against them, often proclaiming "immoral" reasons for those wars. The Vietnam War was NOT a new comer to anti-war demonstrations. But it lasted so long, and drafted so many men, that the protests became unbearable for the White House and the Pentagon. That's what made the Vietnam War stand out.
