Damn communists. Without them, blacks would still have to give up their seats to whites. And maybe we could have our own lunch counters, bathrooms, water fountains, universities...

/major pi$$ed off sarc

Yeah and then the Federal Government wouldn't of moved in to help the blacks by formulating policies that have helped to destroy the black family.

Things could of gotten better for the blacks in this country with out the "Civil Rights" movement. I hate the "Civil Rights" movement because they tend to expect "Civil Rights" to trump individual rights. I feel it is wrong. The communist were not really interested in helping blacks, but rather trying to cause desertion here. Yep its easy to laugh about the commies now, bet millions are in Russia and China now... oh wait they cant laugh their dead.

Your comment "things could have gotten better for the blacks without the civil rights movement" is confusing to me. I do not follow.

What would have driven the change? It's also interesting that you say that they "could" have gotten better, not "would" have gotten better.

I don't disagree that communism was not the answer for the American civil rights movement, but neither was doing nothing the answer.

You look at the civil rights movement differently than I do. I see it more as a means to ensure that ALL American citizens had the same rights, the same protections under the law. You and I both know that separate but equal wasn't.

Can you be more specific as to which of the civil rights the movement was seeking for blacks were wrong? I don't have your frame of reference.
