Friday, May 8, marks the 50th anniversary of one of the uglier incidents in New York’s history Oh man, this sounds horrible, was there a string of mass gang rapes, or a series of torture killings??? in a year that was one of the most tumultuous in recent US history.

Find out if this group has any legs though... it could be little more than spam with few actual members.
