    I really don’t understand how weak people are creating more weak people. Like some old people tell you to slow down so you throw something at them and call your parents to beat them up?

    What happened to just ignoring them? You didn’t hit them, so you don’t have to apologize. Or shit turn around and flick them off and continue about what you were doing? Nope, gotta call the parents to beat up an old person for them.

    You know the parents engendered that kind of helplessness into them. Let your kids make their own mistakes ffs y’all!

      What happened to just ignoring them?

      Some people and cultures genuinely do not teach restraint, respect, or “being the bigger person.” To them, explosive violence and aggression are appropriate responses to anyone who even looks at them wrong.

      It’s pretty shameful.

      It’s so weird these days. To be honest, it’s been weird for a couple decades. When I was a kid, if I got in trouble at work or school, the last fucking thing I would do would be mention it to my parents.

      The family that murders together… prisons together. Or something.

      When I’m 77, I would consider the remainder of my years an excellent trade to put three complete cunts in prison for a couple of decades, and likely transfer a considerable amount of money from Walmart to my wife and kids. Too bad the kid is a juvenile and will likely not get any kind of decent punishment. Her parents rotting in prison and unable to enable her useless cunt will have to do.

      Fuck, I hope they all exist in utter misery for the rest of their worthless lives.
