      OK, make it a provisional f-ck you until we see what he does.

        They're not asking for it. I want to be clear on that. However, a woman probably shouldn't walk down a dark alley in a shady part of the city at 3am. Nor should I strut around South Side Chicago at 3am. I highly doubt good things would come of that. Best case scenario is that nothing happens.

        Unfortunately, there are precautions that should be taken. Is it right? No. It is truth? Sadly, yes.

                We do learn and progress as a species. Fifty years ago 90% of the country would act like those "Real 'Muricans" at the bar. Today it's maybe 40%.

                        At any given time, in some places we slip backwards. During some times even the net of the whole species slips backwards. But over long time intervals, the net of the species moves forward. Slowly we emerge from superstition to science, from violence to peaceful arbitration, from a reactionary mindset to a tolerant mindset.

                        The important thing to remember is it's not automatic or deterministic, it's dependent on individual people doing good things and stopping bad people. Sometimes civilizations forget this and then they collapse back into the chaotic violence of the primordial ape mind. But we're going to be OK unless an ape literally blows up the world.

                              I think you are right, and it's an important thing to remember so that we do not let the oar slip from our hands.

                              A person does not have to be too old to remember times that lend a little perspective. 1968 may have been only one year removed from the Summer of Love, but the sense of hopelessness, anger, and despair coming out of that year was pretty overwhelming (or energizing, depending on how it affected you). Mired in a war in which 17,000 of our soldiers had died that year and which was already appearing as unwinnable as it was senseless, the assassinations of B. Kennedy and MLK, riots and bloodshed at the Democratic convention. We were only several years removed from the lynchings, beatings and riots that surrounded the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and we were living in a world that was even more fearful of nuclear holocaust than we are now.

                              These times are not those times, and it would be a false equivalency to say they are the same. But some good arose out of all that hate, violence, fear, and death (aside from great music), because a lot of good people kept pecking away at it.

                              Older posters could rightfully point out that there was a lot of hope and inspiration occupying that same place in time, and that is still a bit enigmatic to me. I was young and naive and full of hope, but looking back on it I wonder how some got through it.
