"Killed in Ambush"
I was 8 years old when JFK was assassinated and I had a talk with my father.
i was confused and didn't know what assassinated meant, and my dad explained JFK was killed in ambush.
to my young, ignorant mind I thought he meant the killer was hiding in bushes.
I don't even know where this is coming from, and why this popped up in my mind.
I only know this shit has to stop.
those were dark times; lots of crying.
but times are different now; the right is using this assassination as a vehicle to attack progressives.
again, this shit needs to stop.
