Jets Tradition?

Manners??? Respect for others??? Self respect???

Antiquated notions that Dr. Spock and other social engineers successfully killed decades ago.

For decades now, kids have been deprived of discipline and overindulged in self esteem/ego boosting methods of child rearing that has left most them clueless as to how to behave.

There's no reversing this process... it will only get worse.

Nah, these things go in cycles. From Victorianism to 60's love children, and eventually the pendulum will swing back, but these things take time.

Normally I would agree that societal trends are cyclical, but these behavior changes were deliberately foisted upon our society with malignant intent.

The dumber and more ignorant a population, the easier they are to control... there's no stopping this. I used to work in this field, but found it so depressing that I got out.

The social fabric of our country is disintegrating, our borders are being deliberately erased, socialism is the order of the day in our governmental institutions... the natural conclusion to these realities is totalitarian government. Essential to any totalitarian government, is a preponderance of idiots as subjects - we're well on our way.

1. I also like to see a nice pair of jubblies, but there are places you can go to see that, like a titty bar or State St. in Madison or someplace warm & sunny during Spring Break.

2. A throng of fans 500 strong harrassing females who happen to pass by is completely unacceptable. The "freedom of speech" angle is total bullshit. This is not protected political speech, and furthermore, nobody has "freedom" to harrass women in public, especially in such an intimidating fashion due to the drunkenness and sheer number of harrassers. Maybe this is passable on Bourbon street on Fat Tuesday in N'yawlins, because it's kind of expected there, but anywhere else it should lead to arrests, not just ejections.

3. Some nice ranting in this thread. Props especially to Carolina_Packer and Fritz, among others.

They had to install a jail in Philly's stadium.

Your joking right?

No, that was true, at the old Vet. It was basically a big holding cell with a bar on the wall; they'd attach the convict's handcuffs to it. I don't know if LIncoln Financial Field has one or not,
