I think the post 9-11 generations are so trained to value security over freedom, it is a real problem. They don't get that government can be a threat to our freedoms, and this is why the Constitution is all about limiting the power of the government.

A sad,sad,commentary on today’s world.

We have become a society of morons, panicking over things that are no danger at all. Same thing with people over-reacting to kids being allowed to play in the back yard, or walk to school, alone. If I had never done anything alone when I was 9 or 10, I wouldn’t hardly have done anything at all.
Yup...
Not so ancient. I was a teen last time I heard it.
My brother and I were alone all day when he entered first grade-—I was in the fourth grade.
This started in about 1942 and included summer vacations.
My mother had been widowed young——yet we survived.
I cold even bank a furnace.

He’s trying to spread happiness? There must be something wrong with him. An obvious danger to society!
I don’t think that it just about 9-11. There has been a extreme social power shift towards leftist women that hate men and the nuclear family. Hillary is the culmination, the leader of that social movement.
I think you are thinking of the county. It is up north. The town is just north of Kalamazoo.
I commend the guy who found it in his heart to show love for children in his own way but people are naturally suspicious considering the Obama world we live in now...
Ah, I see. Duly noted!
This is Obama’s America now, being nice can be very risky.
Actually, I do remember the Cronkite sign-off. And the Huntley-Brinkley Report and B&W broadcasts and Jack Parr and 0130 end of broadcast days. So, dang, I must be ancient!
