Everyone (1st grade and older) around at that time, remembers where they were, the moment they heard the news. Its a little hard to explain, unless you were there.Originally posted by brassmonkey621:
...Well, maybe im crazy, but i have to think that the Civil War was the greatest tragedy this nation ever endured. I was never alive during the assassinations, but i dont see how it could be .... the worst tragedy. They certainly are no bueno, but life went on after JFK was killed. RFK wasnt even a president... MLK was quite the tragedy, non of this is equivelent to the Civil war. If someone was alive during one of the assassinations, and thinks that they are the worst tragedy this nation has endured, i would love to hear about it. Learning = good
superskippy said:The civil war ripped America apart to the core, pitted son against father and son against brother. Over 600,000 Americans died in the Civil War, Americas rivers ran red with blood and the fields were stained with it, for a little over 4 years this endured.
t's true! I was in 2nd grade and I clearly remember walking down a staircase at my school. We were sent home soon afterwards.Billo_Really said:Everyone (1st grade and older) around at that time, remembers where they were, the moment they heard the news.

Where the hell have you been. I thought you died.
Comrade Brian said:But it did eradicate legal slavery in the US... now just have to eradicate illegal slavery...it still exists in almost every country(except maybe Vatican City).
Eradicating slavery world wide would be impossible...
but i do not agree that eradicating world wide slavery is possible. The US would have to conquer the world to do such a thing....
Not much better then Adolf Hitler?
Does this mean we will see you swinging from vines on the Survivor next to that naked guy soon? Don't answer that. The visual is too much to bear.Originally posted by teacher:
