zab: I remember the 60's like it was yesterday. I was Air Force 1965 -1969. Of all places i was station in CA. We were told to not were our uniforms off base. But if you went TDY or on leave you had to be in uniforms, to fly standby. People would not talk to us or be any help for anything, Yes, they treated us like dirt. Called us all kind of names. Not like it is today!!!

I am glad you don't remember the 60s, these protests are milder than a family get together during the holidays.

Exactly. Amazing how many people on TV today don't seem to realize that. Sheesh, the Columbia students are "occupying" tents, set up in orderly rows.

Back in the day, the students were occupying the buildings. The cops intervened, in large numbers...
