1968 was way crazier than today.
Massive war. Draft was going full-blast. Democrat standard-bearer gets assassinated in Los Angeles. Their President throws in the towel. Riots everywhere. Ever-present nuclear threat from the USSR. Kids running away from home and school to join communes. Campuses shut down. Sexual revolution showing up everywhere; in music, on TV, in movies, in books and magazines.
Crazy as today seems, it's small potatoes compared to back then.
I was 2.
It’s nice to know things were worse.
But the 1968 riots was the seed that grew into today’s RAT party.
Apples and oranges. Our Republic was still strong back then. Medicare and the EPA was just being born. Our economic and personal freedoms are greatly diminished as compared to the 60s.
Today, at all levels of government, bureaucrats and sadistic politicians are controlling more and more of our lives.
With Obamacare our very lives will be in hands of evil bureaucrats.
We likely have within our borders upwards of 40 million humans who are not citizens of our Republic. They have no desire to learn English, they don't appreciate our culture and are repulsed by our History. They look to government for freebies and will in a vote for the RAT party in governing majority.
What is crazy is that amnesty will truly be checkmate for our Republic --And the GOPe will happily go along with this demographic destruction of our Republic.
The situation today is much much more dire than the 60s. We are likely living through the last days of our Republic.
