Yours and a whole bunch of others who lived through 1968 the first time and weren’t stupid enough to want to “recreate” it.

In the 60s every kid in my neighborhood walked to school from kindergarten on. We also walked to the park where our little league was. And to the church where our boy-scout troop was.

Of course, that was before the neighborhood community was destroyed by forced busing.

I think I am part if the last generation to be really free.

My mother took a trolley in Baltimore when she was but 6 to go to dance school. She said it was safe because people cared to butt in and stop anyone who might be bothering someone else.

Now, they just sit and ignore, or join in the torture.
