Hero of my Generations

With the passing of Bobby Fischer another one of my HEROS of my Generation has departed too soon!  John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Bobby Kennedy, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. John Lennon, George Harrison, Jimi Hendrix, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Bob Marley 60,000 American Troops who died in Vietnam.  I  know Bobby was a nutcase toward the end of his life, but what he did on the chessboard was a work of art.

He was the greatest chess player of all times and very good man.I agree with Bobby that America deserved 09.11.2001.

On Sept. 11 thousands of people lost their lives in what was a terrible attack on our Country   NO COUNTRY ANYWHERE DESERVES THIS  MY FOLLOW CITIZENS ONLY WENT TO WORK THAT DAY BUT THE cOMMENTS BY fISCHER AND dalmatinac are just wrong.  Bobby can be forgiven  he went crazy in the later years of his life. i prefer to remember the Chess GOD HE WAS IN THE LATE 50S AND 60S AND EARLY 70S  HE WAS THE TALK OF THE COUNTRY AND THE WORLD A CHESS TITAN.

he is wrong for saying that but he has a point, because America has done so much worse to other countrys. and the fact that America went over there was completely stupid we caused them more damage in one week than what they did to us.

I'm not so sure he went crazy. His first "different-view" remarks came in the 60's. Freedom of speech does exist, however, so we have to deal with it.

In fact many of my 'heroes' are already past..Except Bobby i can say Syd Barret first of all,Morrison,Hendrix,Lennon,Gallagher,Mercury,Keith Moon,Marley,Marc Bolan and more..But we simply remember them a lifetime from their work.Something like the diamonds at chess.com!!

I actually saw a documentary about that "person". Go onstage in front of a bunch of "people". Take off your clothes and poop. Rub the poop all over yourself. Yell into the microphone until someone comes onstage to fight you. Fight them. Repeat.

Damned interesting isn't it?

dalmatinac--

If you go back in history (assuming you can read a book without pictures.)  You'll see that every unchallenged world power was driven by a single goal...domination of it's world...except for one....the United State of America.

And before you say that the USA isn't an unchallenged superpower consider the fact that there are enought nuclear warheads on a single trident submarine to blow any pretender to the throne back to the stone age faster than Croatian dial up.

The power and greatness of the USA isn't in it's military or it's government or it's sword rattling state department it's in her people.  That's right the men and women who get up and go to a job they hate day after day only to rise up in glorious benevlence to send AIDS and famine relief to Africa or millions of pounds of relief supplies to tsunami victims in Indonesia and Japan.  It is these nameless faceless members of this society who, in an instant,can unite seemlessly behind a common good to lift this country to majestic splendar.

 

I don't feel superior because I was born in such a country ...I feel lucky...
