I was not questioning your comment - it was a "call to reality!"
We must be of the same vintage - my high school friend shot the pics at Kent State that made the covers of newspapers and magazines (and got him a Pulitzer prize).
I agree with your concern - as a matter of fact I think the "anger" factor is higher now than it was between the pro & cons of the Vietnam era. We had "leadership" encouraging "division" - Nixon's "secret" plan for peace - Agnew's "nattering nabobs of negativism" - Chicago convention riots - and the conflicting concerns for the war effort and equal rights.
But now - well, we've got HIM - and the Tea Party that built the foundation - and a large majority of states that are also "Repug" controlled, thanks to the absurd redistricting/gerrymandering that took place to allow more control to flow to those designing the districts.
And, as you called out earlier, a terrible lack of leadership from the majority party that shows any ethical concern for what's best for ALL OF THE UNITED STATES. Mitch, Paul, and company have spent the past 8 years fighting anything that would lead to any progress or success for us - and now we have to count on them for help?
GOD help us all!!!!
