And there were times in American history when people were much less forgiving so it all evens out.
I’m 52 and I notice as I look back I screen out the bad things and look at the good things so my era seems great.
It’s just human nature.
the good old days weren’t always good and tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems :)
Some people would have accepted an apology and not pressed charges. Would like to think that still happens. You are right, this is just a sample of one.
