A Historical Day

June 3, 2016 by GµårÐïåñ
(1864) General Grant makes a tragic decision at Cold Harbor
1864 Confederate forces are entrenched just 10 miles southeast of Richmond, capital of the Confederacy. Union General U. S.

(1937) The former King Edward VIII marries Mrs. Simpson
Having abdicated the British throne after a reign of only 326 days, the former King Edward VIII marries the twice-divorced Wallis Simpson at a French chateau. Edward’s decision to choose the woman he loves over his kingdom has caused a domestic crisis, with war on Britain’s horizon.. 1937
(1943) Military men target Latinos in L.A. rioting
1943 Fueled by racism, and what’s perceived as the flaunting of wartime rationing rules, the Zoot Suit Riots flare in Los Angeles as white Marines and Navy sailors attack young Latino men. Other cities will see similar clashes between soldiers and minorities wearing the distinctive suit. .
(1968) Pop art provocateur is nearly assassinated
Already well into his 15 minutes of fame, Andy Warhol, the king of Manhattan’s underground art-world elite, is shot at his famed workspace, The Factory. He will survive after a 5-hour operation, and his would-be assassin, Valerie Solanas, will be diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic. . 1968

deviantArt profile for GµårÐïåñ on deviantArt

Facebook i have made a personal choice after their "name policy" witch hunt which repeats every 2 years it seems at the whim of the "bully mob" (even when they make you jump through hoops and verify you), to just quit it and be done with it, they are not worth my time. I don't need it, I don't miss it, in fact it has made my life more productive and void of gross hate, vitriol and drivel. To those who say they can't stay in touch if I am not on there, if you can't reach me because I am not on Facebook, then you are not trying AT ALL - therefore, good riddance.
