I just saw a movie/documentary called The Drug Years... It was the second of four movies with this title, showing the late 60's and the impact drugs had on them. Let me say, for the majority of the time, I had this feeling of hope circulating through my chest, because I believe the hippies and the musicians had the right idea. I'm not saying lets all go out and get stoned on LSD, but they were using it to uplift their minds, think outside the box, and LOVE LOVE LOVE all, aside from prejudice, hate, and war... up until Manson used LSD to hack into the ugliness inside of him and went on his sordid killing spree, and Janis, Jim and Hendrix all died at 26, and the pigs shot everyone; that's when the hope seemed to die inside of me... I think it's sad that it took drugs to show this side of ppl in such monolithic proportions, and even more dissapointing that the myopic government came out on-top. I think everyone should have a picture of a flower in the barrel of a gun though!!!
