[a fool in paradise]

Bill Ayers, Patty Hearst, Jerry Rubin, et al were ALL from well-off families when they decided to become street terrorists for Socialist Injustice.

[wardaddy]

Hearst was kidnapped and worn down

Repeatedly raped by a black Marxist....kept in a closet naked...starved...pissed on ....humiliated and brainwashed

Hardly comparable with

Rubin
Hoffman
Dellinger
Dohrn
Rudd
Jacobs
Machtinger
Robbins
Gold
Oughton
Wilkerson
Gilbert
Beal
Boudin
Hayden
Weinglass

And others of that ilk either born into familial progressivism or acquired at college

[Lauren BaRecall]

Patty Hearst was kidnapped, and as a psychological reaction she identified with her captors. When she was recovered, she received help and went on to live a healthy and quiet life. She never was a terrorist/anarchist.

Because it was the *hip* thing to do. I lived through it and watched these depraved malcontents.

Looking back, I wish our FBI was a little more, shall we say *ruthless* in dealing with all of them.

But by that time, there were too many "sympathizers" in the govt.....no teeth.
