  • Why the hell is this loser reading Debs?

  • Today is November 5 and it's Eugene V. Debs' birthday.

  • Beautiful, just Beautiful.

  • @artemis12061966 and 60 million died in WW2, as a result of WW1.

  • Im a republican and he still goes down as one of my idols

  • 100,00 Americans were killed in WW1 , who did not have to die .

  • This is going into my favorites, I have never heard a more true speech

  • Eugene V. Debs is my personal hero...HE was the greatest American...

  • I could imagine Ed Harris as Eugene V. Debs in a film.

  • Before ED finished the speech the police arrested him. And for the crime of uttering these words he was imprisoned for 3 years.

    Don't speak to me of Freedom of Speech in America. It only applies to the obscenely rich. The Right has made America into a Totalitarian Plutocracy even as they scream about Freedom. There's no Free Market though the crooked banksters pay it lip service. They continue exploiting the poor; themselves not paying taxes, but dumping taxes on the backs of the poor.
