Yep, I was one of them. I’m still fighting the same battles. The favoring of one identity group over another. The tendency towards totalitarianism on the Federal and State level. The limitations imposed on the right of free expression. The encroachments on the right to defend oneself. Burgeoning and unaccountable government bureaucracies. Police brutality. Corruption in the courts, the legislatures, and the executive, of both the states and the feds.
Nothing’s changed in these 50 years except the names and faces of the oppressors and their ostentatious political orientation.
You meant "ostensible"?
Awesome post, btw. See my post just above.
