This was at the Take Pride in America event with President Reagan.
Rest in peace Louis.

When real men were the norm, and fags stayed in the closet where they belonged.

It’s certainly a very different world and a very different White House. That was an event promoting American pride.

This is Joe Biden’s version:

Sorry to go off topic. Very sad to see actors and public figures like Lou Gossett pass away. These were the celebrities that I grew up on and is a reminder that time is rapidly passing.
Saw a picture of Gene Hackman the other day. He’s in his 90’s and frail and completely unrecognizable. It doesn’t seem like that long ago that he was making movies. He looked like a guy in his 50s or 60s for as long as I can remember and I guess I expected him to still kind of look that way.

It's ok. Gene Hackman will be missed when he's gone.
I loved how he could play any part from Lex Luthor to the coach in "Hoosiers !"
