  1. wow I read the PPV results and it sounded bad, I mean epic bad, WWE Is in trouble big time

     

    See Flair leave wrestling = wrestling is dead till a new great age comes about sometime in the furture.

    I'm the biggest Flair mark around but really....you have to admit.....he should have retired about 10 years ago. His matches for the last several years have been an embarrassment. In his prime, he could wrestle for an entire hour and not bore you. THATS the Ric Flair I prefer to remember.

    I would have to agree with Kor on that one,he was way too old to be wrestling every week..ok mabe at a big ppv turn up like austin and get in the mix,dont get me wrong Flair rules and a big WOoOooOOO too him coz he was The Man for a very very long time.

  5. May 17, 1954

     

    Brown v. Board of Ed is decided.

     

    In a major civil rights victory, the U.S. Supreme Court hands down an unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, ruling that racial segregation in public educational facilities is unconstitutional. The historic decision, which brought an end to federal tolerance of racial segregation, specifically dealt with Linda Brown, a young African American girl who had been denied admission to her local elementary school in Topeka, Kansas, because of the color of her skin.

     

    In 1896, the Supreme Court ruled in Plessy v. Ferguson that "separate but equal" accommodations in railroad cars conformed to the 14th Amendment's guarantee of equal protection. That ruling was used to justify segregating all public facilities, including elementary schools. However, in the case of Linda Brown, the white school she attempted to attend was far superior to her black alternative and miles closer to her home. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) took up Linda's cause, and in 1954 Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka reached the Supreme Court. African American lawyer (and future Supreme Court justice) Thurgood Marshall led Brown's legal team, and on May 17, 1954, the high court handed down its decision.

     

    In an opinion written by Chief Justice Earl Warren, the nation's highest court ruled that not only was the "separate but equal" doctrine unconstitutional in Linda's case, it was unconstitutional in all cases because educational segregation stamped an inherent badge of inferiority on African American students. A year later, after hearing arguments on the implementation of their ruling, the Supreme Court published guidelines requiring public school systems to integrate "with all deliberate speed."

     

    The Brown v. Board of Education decision served to greatly motivate the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s and ultimately led to the abolishment of racial segregation in all public facilities and accommodations.


  6. A new topic..its easy all you gotta do is post some historical fact for that day..

     

    Today in history...The Dambusters and the bouncing bomb

     

    The attack on German dams took place on the night of 16-17 May 60 years ago and was famously made into a film, starring Sir Michael Redgrave.

     

    Two dams were breached in the raid, but an estimated 1,294 people drowned, while 53 aircrew were killed and three taken prisoner.

     

    One of the most famous bombing raids ever.
