But there was less diversity in the 1950s and Blacks and others were discriminated by law. Oh that's right these were the golden years for the marginally educated white males.
Well, race mixing was communism back then. I'm sure many around would still love to re-live that era.
Ask any African American how the 50's treated them.
Separate but Equal? I don't think so.
So you prefer flash mobs,sky high crime etc etc...everything that has come with giving black folks "equal rights". I say it gave them free reign to destroy themselves and they did a damn good job of it unfortunately the bad ones are taking down the ones who are actually trying to make a living for themselves and destroying everyone's America as we once knew it.
Honest question -- when Black people hear or see this, they instantly think that the person is a racist because, of course, the 1950's were are brutal time for minorities in this country. Do you understand this perception? Do you care? Did that enter your equation?
Understand it Yes,Do I care no. Nope didn't enter my equation. They may have more rights now but look at the decay of society? 1950's everyone was respectful of each other look at the country now...you like what you see? Like I said earlier there are people to be obeyed and those that do the obeying.Obviously we see which fits where.
With the exception of civil rights, the 1950s were an indisputably better time for America. The economy was booming, crime was lower, families were closer, etc. Those days are really gone forever though. Some things are better especially if you are a minority but most things are worse today than they were then.
In the 1950s there were no personal computers, no internet. You could only viciously argue about politics, religion, and social issues in person with your brother-in-law, the barber, your neighbor. Now we have City Data!

Jim Crow, KKK, and no voters' rights certainly showed that everyone was respected.

So be straight up. Who is supposed to obey whom and why?
Jim Crow, KKK, and no voters' rights certainly showed that everyone was respected.
And now we have riots and sky high crime and over all a ****ty country. Laws like that kept people in their places. Crime was low,families stayed together,the fabric of America was still in place. Believe it or not a lot of old blacks hate this new America as much as I do.
