This is a time when I thank GOD that I am in my 60s.
I am happy to have been a part of Col. Reb, and the old south.
Life for me 40 to 50 years ago were great times, without any PC crap.
But 40 or 50 years ago, life was hell for decent well meaning folks who were not permitted to vote, to defend themselves, to attend proper schools, or to hold certain jobs for which they were otherwise qualified.
We are also glad you are in your 60s.
I feel a poem comin on. It starts out I see pee cee.
I grew up in the south, in the fifties, VA AL TX.
Days of “save your confederate money boys, the south will rise again”, Uncle Remus, blacks in the back of the bus, colored water fountains, etc.
I keep hoping Disney will relent, and finally release “Song of the South” again as they have promised for years. A wonderful movie. I could use a few zippity do da moments.
To damn many people too sensitive about our history. It is what it is, so live with it. It is the only history we have and it was good, usually leading to better, but I’m not so sure now.
Has legislated desegregation gotten us anywhere? As I see it, we are more separate and segregated now, than we were in the fifties.
Just some thoughts.
And I envy you that, though I’m not terribly far behind. Just enough to have to seen the worst of all the monstrous PC garbage happen.
