Don't know if this is allowed, I guess it can be deleted. Just kind of a cool movie about the summer of love 1967. Filmed on location in San Francisco before the streets were full of poop. At least some of these freaks were good looking (girls). Anyways.....movie for a Sunday evening.

I got to SF in the summer of ‘73, just too late for the Summer of Love. But the city was very clean, crime was low, there was no graffiti or litter, and the bums were contained in The Tenderloin. The city made it a point to contain the bums to that area. Even the area around City Hall was clean. I never felt unsafe in most parts of the city and everybody knew which parts to avoid (Western Addition, Tenderloin, Castro).

It’s actually surprisingly good. Directed by Jack Nicholson under a semi-pseudonym.

The young women of the late 60s were, on average, svelte.

I’ve watched 28 minutes so far. It feels like four hours just flew by!

I was drafted into the army in the spring of 67. Decided to join the Navy that gave me 90 days to show up. Decided to go up north for the Monterey Pop concert. Stayed in SF until the end of August and was in Navy boot camp by September 6. Interesting time.

Problem is, so much of it was a psyops by the international commies association. SDS, lots and lots of the hippie movements and probably the drug importation was facilitated by the commies.

Infiltration of the Catholic Church and the universities was full blast at this time.

Now we see the fruits of their labors.

The walking dead outnumber the normals in Philadelphia, where America was born.

Smooth move, Ex-lax. Summer of Love. Yeah, it was cool.
