I AM A HIPPIE I have been a Hippie for 40 yrs. I know what hippies are and what they did for you and if ya wanna play with the big dogs boys BRING IT.. If you think that hippies can't hold their own against know nothings or are scared of names or anything you can bring, you'd better think again. We survived Nam, racial upheavel, womens rights, the assionation of MLK ,both the Kennedys, the birth of rock n roll and the rest of the BS we had to indure from the PIGS..just to name a few.. we are the vetrens of the sisties and are due respect for our efforts. The hippies I knew were not lay down n take it humans.. they were KICK ASS humans, We faught back n got the shit beat plum from us so you could sit there n call us names. We faught for our constitutional rights n got killed for it so you could have the right to sit here and try to inflect pain on us..the boys that the government drafted to Nam were hippies too.. they didn't wanna kill, they were out in the coolies getting high on the local inticements. Most of the ones that made it back dropped out or was sent to phyche hospitals some went to the right.. what I want to know is what have you done or what are you trying to do to improve anythings, what are you about. If you can't commicate without ridiculing and that's all you have to offer.. then you have nothing of any worth.. <shameless>
Sorry, but this is too long of a post for me to read and comprehend. Could you summarize to, say, about 1 ten word sentence? Thanks.
bug man>tired of seeing hippies being sliced up in here.. am offering them, the offenders a chance to step forward and go toe to toe in a dicussion with real live hippies that don't roll over. <shameless>
Ahh, you make this too easy. HAHAHA, are you serious? Ok, ok, first off... what did the hippie movement directly do for me and my generation? Name the things. I want to know. Second, how the Hell am I supposed to "bring it" through an online forum? It's great how people can become so offended on a website. Um... ok. What did that statement prove exactly? So did a lot of other people. So did a lot of other people. I'll say it again... so did a lot of other people. Um... so did a lot of other people. This doesn't make hippies anything special. Grr... yes, yes, so did a lot of other people. Actually, the birth of rock 'n' roll was more rooted in the 1950's, and as far as I know, there weren't too many hippies then. Which would be? As soon as you show me some things you actually accomplished, you'll earn some of my respect. What happened to love & peace? Now it's kick ass? What? When did this happen? You got the shit beat out of you to give us rights? I don't think so. What the Hell? You're acting as if there was a militant revolution led by hippies. Perhaps all of the drugs clouded your mind throughout the years. Allow me to fill in the gaps that you obviously lost: There was no militant revolution by the hippies. Not all of them... your argument still isn't proving anything. Well I hope not... why would you want to kill people? Well hey! That sounds like a plan! Hippies really knew what was going on. It's a good thing they were there to lie around and get high! Ok, but that still has no real correlation with hippies. I'll tell you want I'm doing: I'm going to school. I'm becoming educated so that I don't end up like yourself, babbling useless hippie philosophy on an online forum for no apparent reason. I plan to have a career and (hopefully) give back to the community. What do you do that's so special, anyway?
Look, I'm through here. I've put in my two cents. If shameless wants to make these threads to give her pointless, wasted life meaning, then by all means, go ahead and do it. However, we both know deep down that you're full of shit.
Oh give me a break! She's already proven, many times now, that she is brainless. Ok, now I'm done here.
shameless do you think young people have any respect for the older generation ?? or did that go in the late 80s. Do you think the hippy movement was for certain class of people or could it be enjoyed by all. I think the 60s was maybe good for some ..prety crap for others...hippies they had it good.
GO HIPPIES! fuck the rest of you. Hippies are the coolest people ever. They listen to the best music, and they also stand up for what they believe is right. They are just so fucking nice too. This is why I hate my generation...
I was going to say outta this one, but since 'ya missed me... *clears throat* Oh its going to be broughten. You're not fighting for any cause right now, you're just trynig to pick a fight on an internet forum... seems kinda childish. Who's we? Your generation? Most would have something better to do, but since you as a woman weren't drafted, its pretty easy to survive and hold some signs. *no misogyny intended* So some good things happened in the 60's... it's not like your fad get all the credit. Those were long hard battles fought for decades by people who cared deeply about the causes, hippies just showed up in the 60's picketing, and thinking they were doing something more significant because they were on a lot of drugs. You weren't shot at... how exactly wouldn't you have survived... because society didn't collapse after some important men were shot... how meladramatic are you hippies? Are you going to say hippies landed on the moon next? You're not personally responsible for a decade. Rock and Roll was started by blacks in the late '40s and early 50's, and the hippie movements musical contribution left much to be desired. How exactly did you have to 'endure' the pigs?? Who are the pigs? politicians? there are always scummy politicians. Cops? You wouldn't survive ten minutes in anarchy sweetheart. You're thinking of the first amendment. You're no Jefferson. Freedom of the press wasn't in danger in the 60's and since the press is still pretty distorted, you failed to clarify things. And then you spat on them as they came home. I can properly spell communicate... thats gotta be worth something, and I'm not the one who brings cried their heart out in this thread... it was just a joke alright, and its over now... stop living ni the past. Dead fad, get over it, find something else to do... I hear Florida's nice this time of year. [edit] Since heifer probably won't get the Florida joke... thats where many old people go, and theres a hurricane headed thata way. get it. ^-^.
I had it all summed up for u.. but was asked to simpilfy it so I did and in the process I deleated major points.. First of all. If we 'hippies" werent out there in the sisties demonstrating for our/your rights and getting laws changed and passed.. you would not be here using your 5th ammendment Second,- your nor your running buddies know anything about the civil rights movement except what you learn in school, which by the way only shows a section of what really went on. Third -Yes there were a lot of people that went through it too.. but not you or your chums and ask the universe who they think paved the way for you unapperciatives who sit on your butts and rag everything attitude. Fourth -I have a carear I have been healing the sick and inferm for 30 yrs. I charge for my services for the ones that can afford it and give it freely to the ones that can't. I pull cancers from the human body and I charge nothing for this service to my fellow human beings.. but your cancer is possibly uncurable Fifth and final- I am here to offer hope and courage to the ones that are trying to make the world a better place to live in with out the sarcasium. I belive you have good quailities.. why don't you shine some light on your positive adtributes instead of all the negitivity you vomit out in these forums.. Show the Love and you'll see the Love.. <shameless>
wise man once said you cannot object unless you have as much compassion for the person you are objecting too as you do yourself(or in your case, hippies)
well we are all in this together, and were all one, that means even the piggiest of pigs... thats a bummer though, how'd that happen?
