    Alan Sherman once more:). I loved this batch, too many good ones, but if I had to pick favorites, they would be Palestinian history and Palatine. You are the Meme King!

    Sorta like ....info overload. The internet has encouraged this. So much info available we don't know what to believe. So, we believe in "nothing". Aand it makes sense.

    yes... In an image about nothing... Everything else becomes even more important! Up to the point of self-delusion about what anything is really about!

    Funny thing. I grew up in a blue collar working class area. Folks working hand-to-mouth. All my older siblings and their pears volunteered for 'Nam. Never understood it. None of it. They knew it was a meat grinder. They knew it was wrong. They knew it was all for not. Yet they went voluntarily. And they all came back. (that I know of). A miracle if you ask me.

    I was in college but was brainwashed enough that I decided not to ask for a deferment on that basis.
    I was lucky to get a high draft lottery number and was not drafted.
    It was a close call for me. Many friends were not as fortunate including my current business partner who signed on with the Air Force. He was only overrun by the VC twice while serving in Viet Nam, and survived with only some hearing loss from working on jet engines.

    I avoided the draft in 71 and was assigned stateside with School Command, (All the on post schools in the USA) and got out in 73 . . . The draft ended at that time, good thing, my number was next.

    When the alternative was to go into the meat grinder of southeast Asia, yeah there was more than enough motivation to go out and protest.

    I believe the draft ended in 72 or 73, Before then, while I was not yet of draft age, the big protests were happening in the city. Without a car, I was forbade by my parents from hoping the train and joining fray.
    Because back then, the Boston cops didn't hesitate busting heads with billy clubs. I think Kevin White was the mayor then.

    Too much "PINK" and pastels but it does, (unfortunately) represent the present day culture.

    I'll still, give them a thumbs up for protecting the flag.

    As someone who lived through the sixties and folk music, I almost want to give into their demands as long as they don’t give us folk music.
    The last picture should be made into a poster.
    This was a great bunch….thanks!

    Trying to think which campus... the one where the administration building was occupied and cleared out by the cops... anywho, about 300 were arrested, half were students (who will not be allowed to finish the semester), the other half were illegal aliens (aka Crimaleins) paid protestors. Some have supplied evidence (presumably for a lighter sentence) that the money was coming from a George Soros foundation.

    Isn't that special?

    Where were the protests when 28 million Cambodians, Laotians and Vietnamese were being murdered by Pol Pot?

    Yes, the concert for the fraternity men protecting the flag should be epic. Wish I could go.
