    Little Rock, Arkansas 1957 protesters against desegregation of Central High School. Federal 101st Airborne troops were called in. Let move along now or you will get pricked by the bayonet. A little prick will move them along.

    Interesting times to say the least. I found this picture on the web where a protester tried to take a rifle away from a 101 trooper. The voices in his head chose poorly!!
