In my young and dumb days those were always the idiots that would fuck everything up...
I was hoping for some clarification of zackmd1's statement, but it never came. I think he wants blame to go elsewhere, but he didn't say where. The parents of another generation? Which one? I think these idiots, and their parents should all be slapped into next week, but apparently no adults are to be blamed for their own actions, so.....just their parents? Their parents' parents?
This likely wouldn't work for me as I'd be saying could you remove your shoes & belt before I run you over because I don't want them scratching my paint
Wow... Sensitive much?
No Zack, i'm sorry but I cannot agree with this. What does parenting and/or a stable home have to do with kids acting like a bunch of idiots. I find it funny, for a lack of a better word, that we are on a forum full of car enthusiasts who are decrying "poor driving behavior". Many of us talk about going to Mexico to enjoy our cars. Pulling up against a Camaro or Challenger and letting it all hang out. Call it what you want, doing donuts or going WOT is the same thing, "street racing". Dumb, stupid, childish, etc., etc. And i'm betting at one time or another we all did it and some of us probably still do.
I can only speak from my own experience... Usually in my experience with my friends/classmates/etc... People who came from a good home situation had enough sense to not shut down a freeway to do burnouts.... That is my opinion. Kids can do dumb things yes, but the extent of those dumb actions IMO is determined by their upbringing and lifestyle.
Actually, if there's an overly-sensitive party in this conversation, it would be you. I simply asked that you clarify your point rather than just quoting something you likely read on Facebook when Tide Pods were in the news. The statement made no sense, and that still stands. Just so you're aware, I'd have to care about something before I'm likely to be sensitive about it.
