    I don't care when you were born if you leave your doors unlocked, you're an idiot.

    Reactionary idiocy.


    Segregation

    Discrimination

    Poll Taxes

    Literacy Tests

    Restrictions against Jews

    And sixty years from now there’ll still be reactionary nitwits longing for the good ol’ days that are today.

    I never thought of that...i was born in 1953, my high school years were 1967, graduated in 1971. I guess i really didn't think alot about it because i wasn't like the hippies and no problem with other races.
