Gee I wonder what has happened to this country that would cause such a thing to happen. I certainly don't remember anything like that happening when i was that age. Of course when I was that age we had a tiny black and white television and the parents in the U.S. were shocked at the long haired Beatles that had just appeared on the Ed Sullivan show.
I bet the ACLU wasn't around defending NAMBLA's rights back then either. I know that our President had just been assassinated and we were ALL as a country, mourning his death. There weren't any Republicans trying to score points during that time, and as bad as the jerk was that replaced the slain President, he didn't get on national TV and tell little children that giving or receiving a blow job isn't sex. There weren't extraordinarily violent movies or video games back then either we actually had to use our creativity to entertain ourselves. And if I remember correctly I recited the Pledge of Allegiance with the rest of my class every morning and was very proud of where I was from. And when I came home from school my mother was waiting with snacks for my friends and I. We would stay outside playing and riding our bikes till dark without a care in the world.
I think the biggest difference was that we weren't forced to grow up, we could stay kids until high school, and unlike today our parents had the right to dicipline us and we would have never considered calling the police on them if they spanked us because we knew we deserved it when we did wrong.
Thanks a lot lawyers, especially the ACLU, you have really done a great job of screwing up our country! :finger:
