Ordinary Americans were taken by surprise by the violence of the late 60s.
“Black Panthers? What’s that?”
“Weathermen? I already get it on the news.”
“Ho Ho Ho Chi Minh. What’s THAT mean?”
Mom and Pop watching it all on the TV, sad and confused.
Not this time.
Too many ordinary Americans remember the 60s; have seen leftism infect every social institution; and are now hearing the same siren call for radical change (the subtext of which is “We are going to take it all, now.”) as we did before.
They think we are weak and ripe for pruning.
But this time, many of us look forward to the raised fists and cheesey berets and the marches and the tough talk and the burning store fronts.
Now we know what there is to lose.
Bring it on Billy.
We’ve been waiting.
