At My Lai (one of many such "kill all" massacres) A brave Soldier Hugh C. Thompson, Jr. refused an illegal order and imposed his helicopter gunship between Lieutenant Calley forces of Lt. Calley (Capt Medina and the 109 later indicted soldiers) and the villager (Women children and Elderly). He threatened to fire on company C who were carrying out illegal orders. Ultimately he received great recognition at the Presidential level And Years later when he went back to My Lai, they asked him if he had brought any of the killers with him, because they wanted to forgive them!
"Kill them all" replaces the failed bullying slogan, "tariff them all."
