I soaked in a vision of the sixties very different from the one my mother talked about: images of Huey Newton, the ’68 Democratic National Convention, the Saigon airlift, and the Stones at Altamont
Wasn't the Siagon Airlift in 1975? Like, April 30th, 1975?
His memories of his memories are even wrong.
And, if *my* memory served, wasn't someone (or several) people killed by Hell's Angels at Altamont? Wow, Barakck, yeah, great vibe.
So, while Barack has fantastic dreams about what the late 60s (and apparently the 70s) were like, John McCain was in a dirty cell being tortured by people who were represented in the US by the people Barack glorifies most.
Wow...What a contrast.
And let’s not forget 0bama’s other idol: Huey Newton, founder of the Black Panthers and cop killer.
Gives us a timeline of 0bama's "investigation". Sometime after 1975, 0bama began to strive towards the radicals.
One cranked up dude pulled a pistol on an Angel and then pointed it at the stage.
He got his “suicide by biker” wish fulfilled.
3 other people died in accidents at the concert.
Two were victims of hit-and-run and one drowned in an irrigation canal.
The Angel [Alan Passaro] was completely exonerated and acquitted by a jury who reviewed the video and found it to be self defense.
The only reason “Meredith Hunter” sticks in the collective consciousness is because he was black, and surprise, some tried to turn it into a “racial incident”.
It was not.
Meth-induced stupidity comes in all colors.
Maybe Barry hallucinated ‘his version’ of the event.
