    Wasn't he the guy who, decades ago, the Texas Legislature voted an award for due to his efforts in population control?

    (A legislator introduced it to make the point his fellow leglislators weren't paying attention to what they were voting on.)
    Obviously they were not....

          He's in Hong Kong. He gets to enjoy all the freedoms that he doesn't believe that the mainland people can handle. There's even a wikipedia link in his sig.

              a few months after the Kent State shooting, there was a similar shooting at a black college in Missippi. In school we had time set aside to discuss that. I guess the NYC public schools thought that it was in the interests of civil peace to let 10 year olds discuss the racial implications of the shooting, etc, etc. I dont think it was till the Missippi shootings that we discussed Kent State in class. Maybe also that the liberalism of the NYC public schools was less ambiguous on issues of race than on Viet Nam.

              I certainly coudnt forget that picture. Nor of the girl running from the napalm. Nor of the ARVN officer shooting a VC prisoner in the head.

                    GFY for trying to be serious.

                    Good for you, I mean, not... the other one.

                    Personally, I wish Tiananmen had affected Red China more, but...

                        As I recall it was just a couple of days later.
                        The two incidents gave rise to a couple of great lines in a Beach Boys protest song

                        They say they scared the troops
                        Thought the troops were battle dressed.
                        Four martyrs earned a new degree:
                        The Bachelor of Bullets..

                        Then down South to where
                        Jackson State brothers
                        Learned not to say nast things
                        About southern policemen's mothers
                        Supposedly, the police opened fire on a dorm because the students were yelling down insults about their mothers.

                        And a couple of days later, some students were bayonetted at New Mexico State.

                        That was a bad time in the U.S.
