A DIFFERENT WORLD

- THE SWAMP RAT

It cracks me up, all these people calling in talking about how the “Leave It To Beaver” era was so good and so perfect. Well, if you were a straight white conservati­ve Christian man, it was. They were the only ones who had any rights. Everyone else was a secondclas­s citizen. Racism, sexism and homophobia ran rampant. If a woman got attacked, well she must have done something to deserve it. And if you were gay you could be locked up in a mental hospital. That definitely sounds like such a great and perfect era.
