Tom Hayden, a 1960s radical who was in the vanguard of the movement to stop the Vietnam War and became one of the nation’s best-known champions of liberal causes, has died in Santa Monica after a lengthy illness. He was 76....
 
Figures. To me he was an American hero and patriot.

Actually, I'd never heard of this guy til now but was inspired by some of the replies on the Justice Scalia has died thread.

So Hayden visited North Vietnam several times during the height of the Vietnam War including with Jane Fonda and her infamous manning an anti aircraft cannon.

He also said he wanted the "non violent elimination of the white race."

So yeah, fuck him.

But he also was for ****** rights and got laws ****** in Cali protecting pets so he wasn't a total asshole.

RIP.
