I was 8 when JFK died. I was a teenager when Martin and RFK died. I had a little sense of what was going on at the time politically. but never was interested in politics. I used to see pictures of the Vietnam War on TV, the riots, the killings of John, Martin and Bobby. It was a lot to take in. It seems every generation had a war, my father was born during WWI in Italy, He served in WWII. My older brother was born during that war, 1943. My middle brother was born during the Korean War. We all experienced the Vietnam War and all the other wars after that.

The very last past with Bobby Kennedy always makes me cry. The very day i graduated from high school was the day of his funeral train procession. Surreal doesn't begin to characterize it. And here we are, almost 60 years later. With democracy hanging in the balance. The state of not just this country, but the overall world situation, causes me great concern and fear. I feel we're on the cusp of something none of us can imagine or really be prepared for. I wish Jack and Martin and Bobby were all still here. Like someone else said in these comments, can't help but think they would be appalled by the state of things now.

Facts: Lincoln was a Republican. The Republican Party was started to oppose the extension of slavery. More Republican Congressmen than Democrats voted to end Jim Crow laws. Fact: John Kennedy was shot by a man with pro-communist sympathies. Robert Kennedy was shot by a Palestinian terrorist. Neither Kennedy was killed by a racist or white supremacist. Martin Luther King and Abraham Lincoln-both Republicans-were. Now, that settled, great and inspiring tribute. Peace.
