      ​@@ronaldviens7862Are the GOP a bunch of saints? No. But to highlight Archie's point, the left is the party of climate change policy and cancel culture. The fact that back then they were talking about reducing emissions solely by stripping the luxuries of life from the working man while flying in the private jets is hypocrisy. The other fact is that's what they're STILL doing. Remember when the left said it was a conspiracy theory that Joe Biden was trying to take away their gas stoves? What happened days later? They made it law that any new buildings in NY couldn't have gas stoves...But you keep livin with your head up your ass, cause you're not good for anything else.

      Nothing I said was 'racist' mind you; I was only making light self-deprecating Mexican jokes and watching them squirm while failing to hold in their laughs not wanting to appear 'racist' themselves by laughing at my jokes.
      To that guy's somewhat rhetorical question, I responded before everyone that 'my friends call me "the Brown Archie Bunker".' Believe it or not, most of them got that reference, and then they loosened up with my jokes. Some later offered some knowing I wouldn't be offended.
      I think it's funny how sensitive the 'progressive' Libs are to not offend in any way, thinking that anything can be construed as racist. Well, 'When everything is racist - Then nothing is racist.'

    I remember sitting with my dad and two brothers watching All In The Family in the late 70's when my dad got home from work. They were reruns from the early 70's and played an episode Monday thru Friday at 5:30 PM. After we would watch the 6 o'clock news then the TV was shut off for supper which my mom made every night. My Mom Teresa,Dad Frank,older brother Frank,myself David,younger brother Andrew(Andy),younger sister Teresa,and the youngest sister Allison would all sit down and have dinner as a family. No cell phones,electronics,nothing.Mom would ask about school,our day,etc. Do families do this anymore? I doubt it. Us kids ages were roughly 12,10,8,6,and2. How i miss those times soooo much,the holidays,vacations,everything. We squabbled like most kids but were a close knit family growing up in Dorchester,Boston. Moms family also all lived in Dorchester. Grandma was the BEST,i really loved her,all the ice cream you could eat! I can hear Edith and Archie right now,THOSE WERE THE DAYSSSS!!!

      And we all thought that Mike (Meathead) was the intelligent one. Archie proved many times that Mike was a moron. I used to be like Mike. My father-in-law hated me, and I thought he was wrong about everything. When you get older, the real world enlightens you.

      I’m not sure which episode you are talking about. So true?
      So much is true about the way we were. So much of it is hysterically funny!
      But I see the contrast between what was on the “TV Set” then and what’s on the “flat panel” now. I would say we’ve come along way. Back then there was Jim Crowe laws in the south. And it was very much implied in the north. If the young people who are rioting could only realize the differences and advancements our country has made, they would most certainly have a different point of view to share now. But anything that points out the improvement in society is being withheld.
      I can’t help but wonder why?
      It would ruin the political efforts that exist today that are putting demographic groups at odds with each other.
      We’ve come a long way. It’s a good thing too!

    This clip made me both glad and sad. Glad that we were able to live in a time as difficult as that time was, that important view points could be highlighted in a very safe environment. And sad that all that has been high jacked from us now. Archie Bunker and Carroll O’Conner with all of his amazingly good liberal views was an American treasure that belonged to all of us Democrat and Republican. It is incredibly sad that the democrat party has been high jacked and the political balance that we so desperately need has been stolen. And how sad that as Republicans we are made to feel we can’t own our past and appreciate the road we have all gone down.
