Oh, the humanity.

Years ago I was told that Democrats go to Harvard and summer on the Vineyard.

Republicans go to Yale and summer on Nantucket.

Always wondered how much truth there was in that???

Whichever you pick, you're gonna get screwed. With the Shit Head, however, you are going to get badly screwed.

Incredible discipline.

Incredible discipline.

My understanding is that the civil rights groups trained for these scenarios. Not reacting, staying calm, when people are shouting and throwing things at you is difficult. It also shows the slippery nature of human power.

Yep. We took in the Newseum, in DC, when it was open. They had an interactive exhibit of a lunch counter, at which you would sit, don headphones, and place your hands on the counter. It simulated the training they undertook. Even though I knew I was in no danger, it was a startling experience to hear the invective hurled at you, with the seat being "slammed" from behind.

As Marty said - Incredible Discipline.

Very cool. They also self organized training sessions in Ohio's Antioch College before sending volunteers into hostile southern territory to help people register to vote. That generation really did some selfless things in 1964. Then they reverted to human normal.
