racer254 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Only 20 of them still on the floor. John Lewis, the man who started it decided to leave. What a bunch of posturing old fools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member SnowRider Posted June 23, 2016 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Yes - John Lewis has been nothing but a posturer his whole life.. And you clowns wonder why your party is old, Christian, male, and white.... A little history for you clowns: In 1957, John Lewis left Alabama to attend the American Baptist Theological Seminary in Nashville, Tennessee. There, he learned about nonviolent protest and helped to organize sit-ins at segregated lunch counters. He was arrested during these demonstrations, which upset his mother, but Lewis was committed to the Civil Rights Movement and went on to participate in the Freedom Rides of 1961. Freedom Riders challenged the segregated facilities they encountered at interstate bus terminals in the South, which had been deemed illegal by the Supreme Court. It was dangerous work that resulted in arrests and beatings for many involved, including Lewis. In 1963, Lewis became chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. That same year, as one of the "Big Six" leaders of the Civil Rights Movement, he helped plan the March on Washington. Lewis—the youngest speaker at the event—had to alter his speech in order to please other organizers, but still delivered a powerful oration that declared, "We all recognize the fact that if any radical social, political and economic changes are to take place in our society, the people, the masses, must bring them about." After the March on Washington, in 1964, the Civil Rights Act became law. However, this did not make it easier for African Americans to vote in the South. To bring attention to this struggle, Lewis and Hosea Williams led a march from Selma, Alabama, on March 7, 1965. After crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge, the marchers were attacked by state troopers. Lewis was severely beaten once more, this time suffering a fractured skull. The violent attacks were recorded and disseminated throughout the country, and the images proved too powerful to ignore. "Bloody Sunday," as the day was labeled, sped up the passage of 1965's Voting Rights Act. http://www.biography.com/people/john-lewis-21305903#civil-rights-struggle Edited June 23, 2016 by SnowRider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer254 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Reading comprehension in not your strong point. This ain't the 60's anymore snowbeavis. The democrats are all a bunch of old hippie activists that are all holding on to the gravy train, convincing guys like you that you need them and you fall for it. Hell, they can't even hold a sit in for more than a couple of hours before they need their geritol and warm milk.
