Why my hope for this generation is fading.

Fuck those kids. I'd like to see how they felt if someone made their grandmothers cry like that while she is doing her god damned job. She wasn't doing anything mean to them or bothering them. She was doing her job and they fucking made her cry.


You guys lost hope in this generation over this?

I lost hope in this generation when I realized that the generation that this generation is raised by merely pretends to give a shit about other people, and they only really seem sincere about their intentions after a major catastrophe like 9/11 or when a gay kid is beaten and tied to a fence where he is left to die. That generation would still today deny that kid a chance to marry the person he loved if he were still alive. That same generation is responsible for the Westboro Baptist Church and all of their fucking hate. How about the generation even further back, responsible for the KKK, and the deaths of JFK and MLK. Once more back and you get the generation that killed Gandhi and started the Nazi party.

So it really isn't just one generation... now is it?

I'm sorry if I come off as raging... but I think I have reason to be upset over such things.

However, I suppose that there is always a tiny bit of hope that still flickers somewhere in my heart for this generation, because I've learned from my favorite movie, the Shawshank Redemption... "Fear can hold you prisoner, hope can set you free."

Don't get me wrong though, I don't fear the failures of this generation.... at this point, I somewhat expect them. I hope that we learn from the mistakes of those previous generations and use the things we learn for good.

I'm more concerned about that last paragraph. People are more concerned about WHAT YOU DID than WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED FROM IT. I mean, they have every right to be, but now NOBODY CARES about what you have learned from it. Reputations just never perish. I make idiot remarks on and off the forum. Do people let them go and move the fuck on from them? NOPE.AVI. Hell, some kid won't let go something I said ONE
HUNDRED AND FIVE MONTHS AGO. (8 3/4 years if you hate math.) I mean, seriously, if people don't expect you to learn and grow from your errors, are you going to? PROLLY NOT! I'm a hyper kid, and often don't process things. But if people doubt I'll change, chances are I won't. Perfect example = America's prisons. Rehabilitation my ass. YOU CAN'T JUST DISCIPLINE 'EM, YOU GOTTA MAKE SURE THEY HAVE ACCEPTED THEIR WRONGDOING AND HAVE MOVED ON SO IT DOES NOT RE-OCCUR! And I especially love how people say "holy fuck I'm gonna change" AND DON'T DO JACK SHIT! Rant over.

I tried watching the video again, and I got about 2 minutes in before I closed it. That's just unbearable.

I'm glad that the woman is getting financial aid so she can retire peacefully. I just hope that those kids will be disciplined enough so that this sort of stuff never happens again...

I hope I grow up to be a bus monitor and get harassed this bad so I can get rich.

Do you really want to take that kind of pain just for the satisfaction of having money?

I think you're missing the point...

Exactly...look a lady got harassed by some kids, let's make it so she can retire. Maybe I should harass ny dad on Youtube because he's never going to be able to retire otherwise.

I'd do it too, I'd become a bus monitor, get harassed, get rich off of it, go to FRANCE, get in one little fight and have my mom get scared, move with my auntie and uncle in Bel-Air.

You obviously don't understand this, do you? Your brain must be out of whack, Navy!

Not surprising he missed that TBH.

Easy for you to say...

Alright now, let's chill out before we get into one big fight and our moms get scared, and then we ALL have to move with our aunties and uncles in Bel-Air.

Oh, so, I didn't have to pack?
