        You didn’t need to be alive when the MOVE bombing happened in order to know about it.

        We used to actually learn about shit like this sometimes in public schools…

          That’s true, and I did already know about it.

          However, being 1 year old at the time it happened I wasn’t in a position to speak up about it or to “allow” it to happen unchallenged.

          Hey, I have a little grey in my beard!

          As someone who was only just alive in 1985 though, I’m curious where you were in the US in 1985 and if you remember how big or widespread the news coverage was on the MOVE bombing?

            I was in H.S. in 85… I don’t remember anything labeled MOVE bombing. Back then it was still big 3 networks for me, I had no cable. Everything was appointment TV including the news.

      I mean its going to be streaming on all channels, all day today, tomorrow, and the especially Saturday.

      If you aren’t seeing it, it might have more to do with where you are looking.

        The protests won’t go far enough to make a difference and fizzle out like every other “movement” in American history.

          You’re right. We should stay indoors and do nothing instead, which will surely make the fascists give up.
