"Today, the counterculture's victims are dying with few children to mourn them - at least, few who are willing to speak to parents who put their own desires ahead of their children's. It is the end of a long, bad trip."
Amen.
In just a single generation, America went from The Greatest Generation to The Worst Generation.

....ran away to find Love in San Francisco, only to wind up wasted on a street whose name sounds like hate. Reminds me of the Sly Stone song "Luv N' Haight" from the (amazing) album There's a Riot Goin' On.

It wasn`t the summer of love, it was the summer of drugs.

I can’t imagine those rags would be glad about anything.

The last time I met real hippies was in 1982. There were two of them, man and wife, and they were landlords who happened to be very upset about a tenant who wouldn’t pay his rent. The flower wreaths in their hair and their bill-collector tone made it seem as though Rod Serling would step around a lampost at any moment.

Interesting how those famed drug users all died of liver ailments.

"Summer of Love" Was the successful propaganda campaign by the record industry, Hollywierd and the MSM to undermine our nation by substituting the word love for sex. It was delayed 15 years Because of "Tail-gunner Joes' and The House Unamerican Activities revelations.
