“the mid-1960s all over again”

BUT,
The MID 60’s saw race riots (Watts in ‘65, Detroit and Newark in ‘67)..the LATE 60’s saw anti-war and leftist riots such as the ‘68 ‘rat Convention and the Weathermen’s ‘69 “Days of Rage,” both in Chicago. The difference with today is that the industrial union members, aka Hardhats, resisted the punks in the streets. Nowadays, the AFL-CIO could be expected to lead the charge for the left in some cases, especially if commie creep Richard Trumka remains in control.

Seen one major riot, seen them all - riots in the 60s did major infrastructure damage - arguably worse than anything yet in the EU, doesn't matter how one characterizes them they were still riots - complete with National Guard troops w/ loaded guns and APCs.

The Federal government was so threatened then, that NSA was monitoring, recording, and transcribing phone, taxi and police calls, among others nationwide - as I recall the traffic went to the FBI via the CIA. It was believed at the time in government circles that race was only a pretext and that the real motivation and inspiration was communist led by Russian operatives.

Creepy Trumka = Creepy Hoffa, et al. Unions have always led for leftist causes.

Mostly the unions rely of the courts to get their way. However, when the free stuff is taken from the inner city leaches, they will riot.

PS: DC, Philly, Harlem, Rochester, Paterson, Trenton, St. Augustine, also burned - plus 114 more cities after King was shot.
