    Which otherwise, at least to me, is strangely re-appropriate for these troubled times we're all stuck in right now -- even if the particular people and causes involved with this one then (late 1970's) have now drifted somewhat (but not nearly completely) away from those that likely prompt our current 'civil unrest/etc', so many more decades later.

    Will we, as a society, *EVER* learn from ourselves?? PEACE, Y'ALL... :-) :-)

      I remember all the controversy about Anita Bryant and her “abrupt disappearance” from tv after seeing her so often on orange juice commercials.
      I’d forgotten what it was all about though.

      This seems appropriate to bring up again, since TheButtonMan has shown us several of his likewise 60's-70's political pinbacks today...?? ;-) ;-) :-) :-)

      Wait, bobby725, if I remember the “Anita” situation correctly, then this pin would be >against< hate of a certain portion of our fellow citizens. So it is asking for >inclusion< and >acceptance< , not hate.
      It’s not racist at all and certainly not hateful….am I reading something wrong, or maybe not remembering right?
