Ludlow, 99 Years Ago Today


Ludlow Massacre site the day after (Wikipedia).
People toss the phrase "class warfare" around a lot these days — and with reason — but it's a bloodless warfare in the news media and social medial and schools, for the most part.

This on the other hand, was real "class warfare." Southern Colorado blogger Rosewolf is reminds us of an anniversary today (scroll down past the snowstorm part).

I have been known to take hitchhikers on Interstate 25 on a short, unscheduled side trip to see the monument.

But today's Coloradans can only put one association on the date "4/20".
