Did Scott Fitzgerald refer to protesters as “Long-haired Goof Fuckers?”

I believe the exact quote is:
“These Goddamn goofy-haired….these long-haired goof Fu@%*!s are just roamin’ the building.”
Guided by Jesus’s message of love in the New Testament, the Cheddarsphere’s font of Catholic wisdom and muscular Christianity calls them “flea-infested dope-smoker plastic-banana good time Charlies and Charlottes”, trumpeting the $7M damage figure, then backtracking in the last comment.

Could he have been referring to a breed of dog? You know, there’s the short haired Gooffucker and the long haired Gooffucker? The short haired is an indoor dog?
I believe Fitzgerald said: “Long-eared galoot fuckers…”
It’s a very common epithet for vengeful men of prominence, struggling to achieve dominance over slippery tricksters.
