History Mysteries: What did you remember about the Hippies in the 60s? How did you view them?

I liked the clothing style, and the black lights and head shops, and the Beatles. It was a good time in some ways, but it was over shadowed by the horrors of Viet Nam, and the assassinations of the Kennedys and MLK. I was a Republican in those days. I wasn't a hippie, but I suppose I had many friends who were considered to be. Some seemed content to live only for the day. I was too Conservative and a bit more ambitious, but the "Peace and Love" movement didn't bother me. It wasn't until recently that I saw what was brewing. I regret not paying more attention.
