   Today in History December 4: Double Trag

   Today is a double tragedy day. On this day in 1969 Fred Hampton and Mark   
   Clark from the Chicago chapter of the Black Panther Party were   
   assassinated as they slept by the US Government via the state and local   
   government of Chicago Illinois, J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI supplied the   
   intelligence allowing the Chicago Police Department to know EXACTLY   
   where they were sleeping at the local chapter’s headquarters, and they   
   died in a hail of gunfire without ever knowing what happened.   
      
   Frank Zappa also passed on this day in 1993 of Cancer, but not before   
   leaving a legacy of music that … had … soul. This song, More Trouble   
   Every Day, is about the Watts Riots of 1965 and appeared on Roxy &   
   Elsewhere after one of the most short, sweet, and complicated segues   
   ever heard in Rock and Roll, from ‘a tender ballad’ called “Son of   
   Orange County”… …a song about Mr. Law and Order himself, Richard Milhous   
   Nixon.
