I doubt it will work. They already went looney when they “crossed over” to do this.

It will only reinforce that they “are a victim” of prejudice and such.

Days of Lot, indeed.

I’m not a lawyer, and my ‘shiny’ and ‘new’ days are long in the past.

I’ve lived long enough to know that without lawyers and judges OF INTEGRITY throughout our history, we’d have no Country.

The people who want to ‘kill all the lawyers’ don’t know what they’re asking for.

I think there was legitimacy to some civil rights issues, and anti-war protests.

First, yes, blacks had reason to complain hence, the movement. But then liberals came in a highjacked it with a liberal agenda. Lyndon Johnson came in with his war on poverty (which, he said, was to have "those nig*ers voting democrat for 200 years) and subsidized black whores to have bastard children.

The stipulation was that there be no man present in the home.

Blacks used to be a dignified demographic, very spiritual, and family oriented. Because of liberal politicians highjacking the movement and buying the black vote, the black man has forfeited all that.

Whatever else blacks think they gained by the civil rights movement, liberal interference has cost them much more than they won. It's a net loss. I stand by my statement.

Second, anti war protests. I used to live in kalifornia. My wife and I knew/had talked to refugees from South Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos. The American soldier was all that was standing between these people and Outer Darkness. When we left, all hell broke loose for them.

Anti war protesters were the scum of the earth and didn't know what they were talking about. As usual.

My wife's dad was a major in the 82nd Airborne. He did two tours of duty in Nam. He survived the war but succumbed to cancer due to, according the the army autopsy, exposure to Agent Orange.

My wife remembers how he was treated by the anti war scumbags. They're trash. And they were wrong. Start to finish.

So why don't you go somewhere else and defend those sorry excuses for humanity? You're not welcome here.

Yeah, if you're a communist. Talk about "Russian interference in elections"...

All the social turmoil in the 60s was fomented by Soviet agents operating in the US.

Well, I’m sure there was plenty of meddling; but absent Soviet agitation, I doubt that Black people would have remained content under Jim Crow, or that there wouldn’t have been some objection to Viet Nam. I think women had some legitimate concerns, too.

Meddlers can’t ‘foment’ anything unless WE first give them a foot in the door through our own failings - and we do have, and have had, some of those throughout our history.

Wow. I might agree with a lot of what you posted - if that were not an incredibly extreme response to the simple statement that some people had legitimate concerns about civil rights and the war, all apart from the influence of foreign agitation.
