(6,034 posts)WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Former hippies across the United States have been put in the unbearable position of rooting for the F.B.I., hippies have confirmed.
From Vermont to California, erstwhile hippies bemoaned a nightmare scenario that has forced them to side with a law-enforcement agency they have despised since the Summer of Love.
I always dreamed Id spend my retirement surrounded by my grandchildren, telling them that the F.B.I. were fascist pigs, Carol Foyler, a former hippie who lives in Santa Cruz, said. That dream has been shot to hell.
Her husband, Mick, nodded his head in sad agreement. We were so happy when pot was legalized in California, he said. But the fact that were now on the same side as the F.B.I. has ruined even that.
