Hayden became a California Senator…enough said!
American systems were under attack…military, education, journalism, and justice. They were infiltrated and are the fall of America. By the time people realize they made a mistake and are turning our nation into a nation of slaves it will be too late
Thanks for the upload loved this show 100❤️
How bout ppl bein mistreated n kill by police and u expect ppl not to touch push or shove police really badge or no bagde give respect n u get respect.
Too much time spent on the sentiments of old white hard-ons. "They were sophisticated older men who hated America…" you hate America you out of touch authority worshipping beurocrat.
So the black guy…
That one guy sure loves the term "bestialize".
“Shout at policemen and call them names”? It’s not illegal to state your opinion. Pigs need to put on their big boy panties
As I watch I can’t help but think ”meanwhile Ted Bundy, Atlanta Black Boy Killer, BTK, Father of Sam.. etc, is somewhere taking lives”
Good to see all this stuff with fresh eyes and knowledge. Throughout all my school years we were taught one way about all the stuff that happened in the 60's but current events that parallel make me question all of what I was ever taught about any of this stuff.
When leftist riot they are just oppressed people fighting for equality, when conservatives do it, we are labeled terrorists and put on the do not fly list… smh
Lefties never grow up.
"by the alleged actions of a few", the most crooked mayor to date
Chicago PD at their finest…..and here we are today 2021…what has changed?
Wow the polls back then if it true %80 against protest what the heck 1968 is the years that shaped the politic around the world not just here in USA in France there students revolution 1968 some others rise in other’s European countries and mostly in the whole South American on top of that liberation of many countries in Africa from colonialism
Level of education was high
He Looked Like A Gargoyle. He Threw Shade
And Nobody Was Shot.. Why Did That Change
Police Been Violent
Only difference between then and now is the police tactics have become more militarized and more violent!!!
McGovern was deep into child trafficking and satanism
It's absurd that people who said over 50 years ago that they hate this country are still here. It all sounds so familiar. Just leave. If you book a flight right now and plan to leave a year from now you'll be able to leave. But, you won't because you like playing the victim. It's all for attention. Liberals have destroyed this country.
Menopausal "men"
I love it, like that putz, Mitch McConnell the so-called "leader" of the Republican party, who looks and sounds like he should be doing a commercial for some low- T snake oil supplement. McConnell epitomizes the weakness, the selfishness, the corruption& the ineptitude of far too many Republicans today, that only care about their own personal enrichment and care nothing about the well-being of the majority of American citizens.
Just look at how much we've devolved in the last 50 years to where these scum destroy these historic statues altogether, they don't climb on them and wave any flags.
It was originally the Chicago 8. When Bobby Seale acted out in court then it became the Chicago 7 as a result of his being separated from the original trial of 8.
Still looks like Dems today just under new leaders and banners of division.
Gee…just like now. 🤔
Wow the polarizing difference of today’s riots.
Inciting riots? This is Trump!
That judge had the right idea. Radicals never change.
2840 so y'all broke people bones
Bobby Seale still around I seeing him n West Oakland!!!
I bet dey wish dey did have dey piece
Oh dats why Bobby Seale went to prison, Dem pigs split Huey & Bobby up
1207 I hate ta c dat cop now wit cellphones
Not to far off from Trump inciting a riot because he is a big baby and tried everything short of going to the Capitol himself to destroy, hurt, and possibly kill police and government workers to try to prove that his lack of reelection was a hoax ( one of his favorite words). Now he’s being investigated for this and is being demanded his tax papers, not to mention his company workers who are accused of committing fraud.
My adult kids didn't believe me when I told them we've been here before. And that our trump situation is even worse, scarier…
We needed the cops to react like this on January 6th
While the jury deliberated, Judge Julius Hoffman convicted the defendants and their attorneys for contempt of court and sentenced them to jail sentences ranging from less than three months to more than four years. These convictions were later reversed on appeal, and some were retried before a different judge. From the beginning of the trial, the defendants and their attorneys have been represented in a variety of art forms, including film, music, and theater.
The police are the largest gang in the u.s.
We used to have men with conviction, intelligence, defiance, toughness. Even if I disagree , I respect it. Now we have the headless BLM and Antifa…it's just sad.
And ppl wonder why I can’t be a democRAT
This is sheer police brutality.
All the bad boys except Bobby Seale are dead. I’m glad!
