its sad cause its true. Disgusting sometimes how delecate people think others are and how over reactive some can be over the stupidest thing. Ya wonder why people seem cold and disrespectful nowadays and its because they are too afraid of getting sued or arrested for looking at someone the wrong way.

I think this is older than the internet.

Funny they seem to make no mention of the McCarthy Hearings, bomb shelters in backyards, Elvis and the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show, blacks and whites using the same water fountain, and other forms of paranoia that were around during the 50's and 60's that we do not have now.

Not knocking the truth in this, but its not like paranoia was invented in the 21st century. Its just times are different and we have different things to worry about.

Are you suggesting teens are having less ***, or being more careful?

Are you suggesting that the laws are preventing crime, or a signifcant amount of the criminals are already in jail?
