Ah fuck it. I'm just bitching, getting a beer buzz and waiting to go play a little hockey on friday night. I will bitch more later.
No, you're right.
Times have changed - and mostly not for the better.
I wonder how many years away we are from a complete break down of law and morality.
It's happened already in so many countries that I see no reason for it not to happen here if we keep going as we are going.
I'm 41, and actually, I can remember how my friends and I would play in our neighbors' backyards all the time. But then again, it was just something that was allowed back then. As I've told my wife, if kids did that today, they'd be arrested for trespassing.
No shit.There should be laws against drooping pants, cocked hats...ah, the list can go on.Most young people today need to get their head out of their ass and really decide what they'll be doing in five years, 10 years, etc.
I really dont think we are that far away from a complete breakdown of society. I live in the UK and was horrified by a news incident that happened recently. A woman who had pancreatic problems fell over and hit her head outside of her house. A local youth went over and instead of trying to help her he kicked her, threw water over her, urinated on her and then put shaving foam all over her whilst his mate filmed it on his cell phone. This all happened over a 30 minute timescale and whilst the woman lay dying, no one helped her. Her last minutes of life she spent being horrifically abused. It makes me weep how so many young people of today have no morals and seem to be full of hatred. I personally feel that the governments of western society have a lot to answer for. For the societies that have been created under their rule have become so consumed with how much they can get materially that just plain simply loving thy neighbor doesn't even enter into the equation. The majority just seem to be out for what they can get and fuck everyone else. Ok, maybe it isn't fair to blame the government, who knows but one thing I do know is a hell of a lot of western societies problems are generated by the media and who controls the media? We're continually bombarded with images of how we should look, what we should own etc. It's this whole cultural bullshit of having the best we can get and where has it got us? All I see right now is a mass breakdown of morals and disrespect. Perhaps it is time for other life forms to become superior on this planet as human beings have made one hell of a mess of it.
