people of my age.....early 60s....we grew up probably with parents that were prejudice.

..and by God, we were going to be different...

now things have gone full circle...

now we perhaps know the fears our parents had...because now we have those fears...

I always marveled at how old people always say what is on their minds; they don’t sugar-coat anything. In today’s PC environment, it all makes sense: Retirees can’t be fired for speaking the truth; nobody can demonstrate outside their company, or threaten their pensions.

I was born after the last black people had to sit at the back of the bus or use a different water fountain; people my age have reverted to our grandparents’ mentality because we saw what “The Great Society” achieved (nothing but complete dependence and racial enmity).
