Very good ideas. I have marched in peaceful protest in the sixties and seventies that were mostly peaceful. I'm afraid the military and national guard is a mistake that could lead to another Kent State. I think Trump deliberately sent the National Guard to get the reaction he wants so he can invoke the insurrection act and to show he can invade any state he wants without any Governers permission. Things will get worse before they get better. We the people must fight back peacefully and vote all these fascists out of our government.

You can't argue with a beautiful flower.

Quite a blast from the past, right about the time I was becoming politically enlightened. Much of it still relevant today.

I still recall that iconic photo of a hippie chick sticking a flower into the M14 barrel of a national guardsman facing off at a protest at the Pentagon in '67.

Now that the National Socialist is reported....

Great historical piece, thank you! I remember when the Hells Angels were considered allies with counterculture events.
