Segregationist 1960s when black folks had to ride in the back of the bus? Please enlighten me which one of these you'd like back? I don't like all this post-9/11 security non-sense either, but I will take it any time compared to being a minority and living during the times that I have listed.
How about to the 1990's? Sheesh.
