Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's been a month since cartoonist Jules Feiffer died. His best work was in the 1960s when he opposed the Democrats he had previously supported for their prosecution of the Vietnam War, and also did great anti-racist cartoons as well.  The timing for me to mark his passing also works because, consciously or not, today's cartoon echoes this punchline of the 1970s Feiffer cartoon that I have posted.

That and it was Nixon who pushed hard and blamed hippies for it. Old enough to have direct experience.
