If I go out like that it’ll be with multiple slides locked back surrounded by a pile of hot brass and dead bad guys.

Now that I'm no longer in HELLINOIS I can say it: There's gonna be an awful lot of stacked bodies here in Southeast Tennessee if "they" really try coming after us.

Try that shiznit in a small town. Dare you.

[Alas Babylon!]

And you have proof that these “social media posts” were done by Boomers?

Or...

People who want to blame Boomers?

I’ve heard more than a few Boomers say they worked hard for their life and life achievements, but I’ve never heard any saying “Ha Ha! F You! In your face!” like these so-called posters are portrayed saying here.

[KrisKrinkle]

“...they are determined to take it all with them...”

If they are the kind of person who successfully does that, won’t it just burn?

[MinorityRepublican]

The absolute worst candidate in the history of ever, and she still almost won.

We are so screwed.

We have three years. Enjoy it while it lasts. (Hope I'm wrong regarding 2028)

[Alas Babylon!]

Agree, they’re NOT Boomers.

They are Generation Jones.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Jones

Generation Jones refers to the cohort of individuals born between 1954 and 1965. This generation is often seen as a bridge between the Baby Boomers and Generation X. The term was coined by cultural commentator Jonathan Pontell and is characterized by their experiences during significant cultural and historical events, such as the Vietnam War and the Vietnam War protests. Generation Jones members often feel a sense of disillusionment regarding the ideals of their predecessors, the Baby Boomers, and their own experiences, which include growing up during a time of economic uncertainty and social change.

WOW! I could not have said that better. Well done!

[Alas Babylon!]

I’m bitter that Obama called me a bitter clinger, and Hillary called me a deplorable, and Biden called me garbage, but their words are just toxic waste poured into the political river.

[PeterPrinciple]

Lord,

We pray for some tough times for this younger generation. Times so tough, the only answer is You.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Agree.

The reason for housing unaffordabity are: stupid land use restrictions, put in place to lower the supply of lots (and raise prices for Democrat developers), taxes and regulations that absurdly raise the cost of building, HUD rules that require subsidies for housing illegals and other people no one sane wants to live near, and bank rules that keep interest rates high and force banks to subsidize bad credit risks (at the cost of those with good credit).

In short, this is a coordinated leftist effort to destroy the American dream.

[AZJeep]

Ditto here.
Except that my car was 1973 Mercury Montego station wagon.
Bought used for $100.
The government regulations killed those station wagons and beautiful land cruisers!

70’s interest rates, gas lines, trying to get a decent paying job from the 70’s into the mid 80’s, 6 fuzzy TV channels if you were lucky, even more so if in color, on an 18” screen, no mobile phones or internet, paying for “long distance” which was any phone call more than 20 miles away, mail order for anything you couldn’t get locally if you could get it at all (“6 to 8 weeks for delivery”), walking for help or a pay phone in the middle of nowhere if the car broke down, $10-15 in 70’s money for an analog vinyl album that had maybe 1 or 2 good songs on it, Pong being the only video game, having to go to the library for research on anything…yeah, a real life of luxury. We fixed all that, made things a lot easier and have been reaping the benefits of what we created—and so will my kids.

[madison10]

Yes. Whiners. Tucker Carlson pushes the hate.

[9YearLurker]

And of course, many of them are unhappy with you—sitting there at the top of the Ponzi scheme as you are.

[MtnClimber]

I think the social media posts are done by leftists who want them blamed on Boomers to stir up division. Boomers are older, more experienced and as a group are more conservative so it is a logical division to exploit.

[9YearLurker]

Ha—happy training!

[TalBlack]

“Will the folks living on these leafy suburban streets be ready for armed, organized and mobile bands of desperate urban poor who are looking to relocate and upgrade their crib at the same time?“

They aren’t the only ones that can arm and organize and they aren’t even remotely close to being the ones who have been holding back righteous anger.

[Nea Wood]

So true. I’m a boomer and I’ve been railing against the illegal invaders since the Clinton administration, when I first started noticing it in a big way. I don’t see how any of this is my fault. I suffer from the high prices as much as anyone else. I don’t have anything I didn’t work for. Just what is it these whining younger generations expect boomers to do for them? Just hand over everything we’ve worked for and then obligingly die? We certainly didn’t have iPhones or get our coffee at Starbucks when we were young. We grew up with one TV in the house, one telephone for the family, hand-me-downs from older siblings, shared bedrooms, and one family car, and that’s if we were lucky. Most of us struggled, worked hard, raised our kids, minded our business. Now all of a sudden it’s our fault the world has gone to crap? Anyone who thinks that can GTH.

Instead of blaming boomers, like the whiny little spoiled jerks that they are, why don’t they realize we’re ALL suffering, that there are good and bad in all generations, and maybe then we can work together to fix what’s wrong.

[9YearLurker]

Simply having 60-million illegals here has driven up housing—and down wages.

[Carry_Okie]

Boomers were the last generation not to have the “blessings” of positive reinforcement conditioning in public schools.

Children since have been raised in a culture of entitlement with zero accountability.

I home educated our girls. Both got PhD STEM degrees. Both own houses.
