ok...civil rights movements, ya got me. but when someone is in a thread that is generally talking about war related stuff, it probably will tend to slip "right by" me b/c that is a different topic...still a protest, yes, and even a war of sorts.... but not over foreign war related affairs...such as most of the ppl on here are talking about. thanks for being obnoxious about it, though....appreciate that b/c it was oh SO necessary.
and people involved with the civil rights movement also got on with their daily lives....compared to the protests of today, how many of them got down in the street to play possum? they took a non-violent stance on things....and therefore, people paid attention, and here we are today. and i know there are plently of peaceful protests and all that, but i think, again, on this particular thread, people were voicing concerns about the non-peaceful, over-obnoxious protests that make our soldiers think we hate them. or at least that's what i was getting at.....didn't mean for that to go right by you.....

and if i am wrong with any of my civil rights stuff, go ahead and correct me.....but please refrain from referring to me as "dear"...i have yet to stoop to a level of any type of name calling, and would appreciate the same. thanks.
