@RobGoth100 Good observation! A lot of the defining images and trends of the 1960's that are attributed to the post-war baby boomers were, in fact, brought to us by the later members of the so-called "silent" generation, and the Yippies are a perfect example. All of the major rock stars of the era were born before 1946. Most of the Merry Pranksters (of Electric Kool-Aid Test fame) were born in the 1930's. James Rado was 36 and balding under his wig of "long beautiful hair" on broadway.

If you want to preserve the last remaining forum for free speech and independent thought, visit Al Franken's website -- join in his effort to keep the internet and open forum.

Nothing much has changed since the 60's except now there is even greater control over the media and the messages we get. Hoffman was brilliant. He knew the American people were being controlled by the messages they got from television and he knew there was state control and corporate control. Forty years later -- the control is nearly complete -- and now there are attempts to control what messages we get from the INTERNET!

It is always the right time to do good. Forgiving your enemies is good.

Forgive.

@tommerrigan1956 I have read some of Gandhi's works and I am to this day still moved by them. Yet I can see how the government's mechanisms for control grow daily--even during Gandhi's time he expressed the fear that his country had already been lost to the evils of modern society. My opinion would be different if people stood up for their rights in this country but they dont and thats what scares me. We the people are far too sheepish.

@mynameisabag Nonviolence is, ultimately, not doing nothing, but refusing to cooperate with evil. "Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good" (Gandhi). Active nonviolence is actually very active and includes such things as refusing to pay taxes, refusing enlistment, sit-ins, etcv.
