Your post got me thinking Hippy, America has gone back to days I thought my children and grandchildren would never have to face. When I was a kid we used to have air raid drills in school and I remember being pissed off at my father for a couple years because he wouldn’t build us a bomb shelter. By the time I got into high school the cold war was still in the news but a war against the commies didn’t seem eminent and the bay of pigs was ancient history, we had Vietnam to worry about. We talked about politics and the war a lot and did not trust anyone over thirty (they didn't have to worry about the draft). Collage age kids should be taking an active roll in politics, their the prime age to be drafted.
