I say this to everybody, especially the hard left leaners here. I am supplying you with some very outstanding information about May Day, which is tomorrow.

I sauntered over to cpusa.org and came up with some really great stuff for all to see. I am sure that we have some hard left leaners here who will call me a liar because I am handing you the great stuff from the CPUSA Party about their road to socialism. I know some of you don't want to believe this but it is there for you to read, if you will.

On this site you can see the Road to Socialism USA if you want.

Also, you can see a fine video about the coming Winter Soldier movie. Winter Soldier? That sounds so much like the thing that Jon Carry ran back in the early 70s. I wonder if these IVAW guys are telling the same kind of lies Carry's people told.

Make sure you read the party program at least a part of it, since it is very long and drawn out.

I so well remember my May Day excursions in 1956 and 1957. In 1956 we were told not to go to town in Germany since there were so many C*******ts in southeast Germany back then. We went along with some old timers just to see what went on. We all wore our uniforms so the c*******t h**ers of Americans could see who we were. Fights usually broke out and surely one did that day. Those red left leaners just didn't know how to fight with Americans.

On May Day, 1957 we had happy days in much the same manner. We dressed for the occasion, though, and shouted all kinds of crude things in English to work them up. Normal odds for Italians and Americans had to be about 6 to 1 in order to have a decent fight. i guess I haven't said that my group had a house rented in the town of Udine. Those Italians just didn't know how to fight with fists. They tried to do it by slapping you in the face which is hard to do lying on the ground from a fist to the chops.

Things like this went on all over Europe back in those days since the Europeans hadn't all come to like we of the US who freed them from f*****t control. It was unbelievable how many Europeans were C*******ts back then. They should have shipped all of them east of the Iron Curtain so they could be happy.

C*******ts love Halloween much more due primarily to the DEATH theme.

I will have to disagree with you about 100%. My experiences in Europe told me so much about how those people celebrated the number one day in the world of C*******m. I know what C*******ts think and believe but I may not know what c*******ts think. You do realize that there is a difference between the two groups.

Does anybody here really know what May Day is to C*******ts?

I have to wonder about that since nobody replies.

To my understanding it is rooted in ancient history:

May Day is related to the Celtic festival of Beltane and the Germanic festival of Walpurgis Night. May Day falls half a year from November 1 – another cross-quarter day which is also associated with various northern European paganisms and the year in the Northern Hemisphere – and it has traditionally been an occasion for popular and often raucous celebrations.

As Europe became Christianized, the pagan holidays lost their religious character and either changed into popular secular celebrations, as with May Day, or were merged with or replaced by new Christian holidays as with Christmas, Easter, Pentecost and All Saint's Day. In the 20th and continuing into the 21st century, many neopagans began reconstructing the old traditions and celebrating May Day as a pagan religious festival again.
Origins

The earliest May Day celebrations appeared in pre-Christian times, with the festival of Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers, and the Walpurgis Night celebrations of the Germanic countries. It is also associated with the Gaelic Beltane. Many pagan celebrations were abandoned or Christianized during the process of conversion in Europe. A more secular version of May Day continues to be observed in Europe and America. In this form, May Day may be best known for its tradition of dancing the maypole dance and crowning of the Queen of the May. Various Neopagan groups celebrate reconstructed (to varying degrees) versions of these customs on May 1.

The day was a traditional summer holiday in many pre-Christian European pagan cultures. While February 1 was the first day of Spring, May 1 was the first day of summer; hence, the summer solstice on June 25 (now June 21) was Midsummer.

In the Roman Catholic tradition, May is observed as Mary's month, and in these circles May Day is usually a celebration of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this connection, in works of art, school skits, and so forth, Mary's head will often be adorned with flowers in a May crowning.

Fading in popularity since the late 20th century is the giving of "May baskets", small baskets of sweets and/or flowers, usually left anonymously on neighbours' doorsteps.[2]
