Just google "breasts not bombs" for a great old-nekkid-sagging-hippie-grossout fest.

Like other panelists, O'Donnell and Getz remembered the Human Be-In as both the beginning and the end, an event that would be much duplicated but never equaled.

Yeah, yeah.... The baby boomers invented sex, drugs, rock and 'events'. Nothing will ever, ever equal them--ever!

I dunno... I was born in '68: It just looks like a lot of privileged young $h!ts that became rotten old bastards.

" Bodies that writhed with wild abandon when a guru invited them to "Turn on ... tune in ... drop out'

Well, not really; we just gathered together and got baked. Someone's been watching too many of Jane Fonda's early movies.

My dad was a cop in a very large city and the only thing a hippie was good for to him was Billy-club practice.

Ah, yes.... The ol' "hardwood shampoo"!

My ol' man was a Korean era vet--by this time, he thought the whole world had gone mad.

A Selfish, egocentric generation of spoiled middle class brats, whose only heritage will be treason and sedition of their own nation.

They are a disgrace to the nation, and their greatest achievement was to put a barbarian and his megalomanic wife into power, BJ Clinton, a sex addict, and his power hungry witch wife, Hitlery, and are now are pushing for more of the same. May we have a civil war before we allow these propogandized, jingoistic, iconoclasts to influence the selection of our president and majority power in Congress.

In addition to their ideological morass, they also created the sexual revolution that resulted in AIDS and HIV. Their curse runs so deep that they have brought about a malicious denegration of the human genome through this disease, which they seem to increasingly celebrate , as they try to move the nation into gay marriage, gun control, and the legalization of otherwise banned drugs. A pox , on every last one of the uncivilized sodomites, before our nation becomes a modern Sodom and Gomorrah.

I don't remember the 60's because I wasn't born until 1980. Thankfully, my first memories of social things was Ronaldus Magnus and people trying to free themselves of the chains of the counterculture. My perspective of these sorts is that these are the people who will complain that the rich and well-to-do do not serve in Iraq but likely took measures to evade the draft during Vietnam because they were lucky enough to be in college. I was sickened by how professors at school made a group of malcontents into heroes. The love generation were the selfish offspring of those who saved the world in WWII. Their freedom assured, they found the time to question the nation that has freed more people, saved more lives and offered opportunity to more people than any other nation to exist on Earth.

--Now the 1960s is a distant memory. In fact, old people reminiscing about the 1960s is as pathetic today as it must have sounded to the hippies back then when older folk were yapping about the 1920s!--

Funny. I always enjoyed listening to my grand-parents or parents reminiscing about their earlier years. I am sorry you think people think it pathetic.

Ah yes, the wonderful Sexual Revolution. Look at all the good that it has done us. Now we don't reproduce so we have to import labor so in a sense, we are not-breeding ourselves out of existence. hmmm.

"The blood of two million Cambodians is on the hands of the hippies."

Amen. I do not believe in the sincerity of any peace activist. The stakes are too high, the consequences too obvious. These devils are wilfully, deliberately evil. Perhaps terrorism appeals to their nihilist instincts. It is possible that they identify with ruthless totalitatarian power---it vicariously gratifies the neurotic power-seeking impulse that is so characteristic of the narcissistic personality disorder.
Whatever it is, "the peace movement is objectively pro-fascist," as George Orwell said in 1942. He was right then, and he is right now.
