The hippies possessed no material weaponry accept “love” – and unfortunately – bullets of iron and steel can pierce a body enthused with this “love” – rendering it a lifeless cadaver. Furthermore, even before the bullets are fired – the deliberate oppression that is “social engineering” is often used to “soften-up” any and all opposition to predatory capitalism and its mania for death. Like many of the more “mature” people amongst us – I am old enough now to have witnessed to the same strategy and tactics deployed by the hideous and demonic government of a US government hell-bent on reducing the entire population of a world into wage-slaves and profit-earners for the privileged top 10%. The UK should have finished-off this aberration in 1776, 1812, or even in 1861 by taking the side of the Confederacy (we might as well have done – as thousands of British fought for the South)! The UK had its chances and we let humanity down!
