this depress anyone else?

[sanctuaryforthelost]

@alanmelder16 I used to find it depressing, but then I realized the truth in the music. The times they are a changin and there is no stopping it, but not everything in the future is going to be bad, we just have to get used to the changes.

I believe that reference is to the Kent State shootings of 1970. Many were protesting Nixon and his involvement in Cambodia when they were told to National Guard. 67 rounds in 13 seconds, 4 dead and 9 others injured.

also what is the hippie flower in the gun referencing?? is it an old iconic photograph?

[HighSchoolHair]

@jin455 its referencing what Hippies actually DID when they were threatened with weaponized violence.There is no particularly historic or iconic individual moment of this specific thing happening, nor do I have any knowledge if at any time during the 60's hippies really did do this, but this motif seems repetitive of 60's representations so i'll assume it definitely happened at some point and was thence carried on in 60's ideology.

it's crazy that it was only in 2011 the first lesbian navy kiss and these guys had it in the 40s
