(73,558 posts)Many years ago on this forum, I used two jokes that I borrowed from Abbie Hoffman. Some discussion that I no longer remember reminded me of a couple things he had said when we were hanging out in the 1980s about Reagan's attitude towards black Americans. A few people thought I was serious. Yikes! So while I have retired those jokes from internet use, I do appreciate this OP.
