Norton was truly ahead of his time! A real visionary!
I'd love to read more about his proclamations and what they entailed.
It's fascinating how history remembers such unique figures.
Elon Musk needs to take notes from Norton on how to be eccentric yet beloved.
This story is so quirky and enchanting! Norton deserves more recognition.
Did he actually influence any laws during his time?
The connection between Norton and modern figures like Musk is mind-blowing.
I wonder if people view him as a symbol of hope today?
Norton sounds like such a colorful character! San Francisco must have been lively back then.
Can't believe he got 10,000 people at his funeral! That's impressive.
Who knew a man in a blue uniform could have such an impact?
I love how he fought for human rights despite having no real power!
