Mini hijack.
Funny.
Last year we moved into an "adult" community where there are a number of retirees. We had a little impromptu block party Friday night and one of the new neighbors I met was a retired FBI Special Agent who had been assigned to the NY office and then transferred to Chicago, and was there during the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
He was stationed in Grant Park during one of the CPD sweeps and felt trapped between the "hippies" and the cops. His perspective was pretty interesting as someone who was "older" when I was a college student.
End of hijack.
