I was arrested in 1965 for opposing the war in Vietnam. There were 39 of us arrested that day. But thousands opposed us. And the majority of the people in the country supported the war then.

I grew up pretty much prevented from knowing anything from Communist China except that they were the bad guys that stole our country.

First of all, let it be remembered that I speak as an ex-Communist and one who has not testified before Congressional Committees, nor written works on the Communist conspiracy.

For years after I resigned, I was still faithful to their way of thinking. But not in the American Communists.

The Communists automatically violated the daily practices of democracy to which I was accustomed.

I see people detained for simple INS violations.

The SS, as such, behaved no more criminally than any other social groups would behave when taking part in political events.

I've never been arrested. I've been stopped, searched and had a gun put to my head by the Chicago cops.

My first civil disobedience arrest for social justice was in 1986 for protesting the SDI.

This may surprise you, but I was arrested in high school.
