#4  Other than all the horrors of segregation, and they were horrible,


...and real poverty, Third World type, not today's which would make most classified out to be pretty much in the upper quarter of any other 2d or 3d world country.

The 12V, shoots straighter than I will ever be able to see. Wise at an early age AlanC, a very early age.

#2  Other than all the horrors of segregation, and they were horrible, I remember the 50's fondly even though my mother wouldn't let me have the Savage rifle in Boy's Life.

#1  Great days of growth. Soldiers home from the war. Low income homes built and many still standing today. Greenbelt Maryland was one community. Beltways built like 495 and 695. They always throw mud at this time but they can't remove the memories of many of those who lived these days. The sixties were a disaster. In my opinion the media became a tool of the Democrats. Race war, Korea, Vietnam, Feminism all Media driven contrarianism. When you see the attacks on Trump you see the media doing the same thing they did to Nixon. Watergate was a setup. A witch hunt as Trump calls the attacks on him and his family. Yet Kennedy walks, Hillary and Bill walk. The swamp has existed since the founding of this Republic.
