Just a few things to add.
Just a few things to add.
: I have been accused of being an old fashioned 20th century fosile but I believe that youngsters today practice what they vision and with all the filth and violence that bombards the young minds of today its evident that some are practicing what the see. The rise in " School shootings " for one.
As a high school student, i feel that such events occur not so much as a direct result of the violence teens witness on tv, but rather from the emptiness with which they are left as a result of mainstream media telling them that they have to be something they can never be. If society could overcome the power which pop culture holds, then i think many problems would be solved.
: As far as me missusing this forum, I think this forum is exactly what it is, a place to express ones opinions, thoughts and views but if we all agreed with each other then we would be nothing but sheep.
I'll take that one step further and say that if everyone agreed based upon their own formed opinions, it would be utopia. However, if they all agreed based upon second hand information, so much like most youth in america these days, then yes they would be sheep.
: I defend and respect your opinions of my post however the need for "expressive" language is not neccesary, possibly you picked it up while viewing one of those video's that your defending as being "not offensive".
I refer you to my previous post about morality being open to interpretation. Besides, i'm fairly certain "frig" isn't even a word.
: Who died and made you in charge of who stays and who should leave........
I think what he was actually saying was that leaving is the equivalent of a tv's off switch, and if you were that offended by an accident, then turn it off.
: : "your words leave a sour taste in my mouth"
Man, don't get all bent out of shape over what some random person in another part of the country thinks of you.
