September 20, 201610 yr They are just much more visible today with social media. Correct. No dumber than they were 30+ years ago.
September 20, 201610 yr They are just much more visible today with social media. Correct. No dumber than they were 30+ years ago. No question about it.
September 20, 201610 yr Have to think about the expulsion, right now it disturbs me. Absolutely agree with her sorority kicking her out. I have no idea when people are going to learn the internet is forever and your ignorant stuff will follow you. She's lucky she's not my daughter.
September 20, 201610 yr They are just much more visible today with social media. Correct. No dumber than they were 30+ years ago. No question about it. Maybe that's part of it...but I'm convinced it's not all of it. Remember I work/deal with a lot of pre-teen/teen age boys thru basketball, and have for years now. Kids have done dumb stuff all through the ages, I get that. But common knowledge stuff that you would expect most if not all kids to know by a certain age seems to be lost on more than should be, and common sense seems to be taking root a lot later in life these days for many, if it ever takes root at all for some. I know, I know..."get off my lawn"! Maybe I've turned into that guy.:idunno:

I'd venture there were just as many kids who didn't know common knowledge stuff back when you were growing up, you most likely just weren't around them. Probably around more kids who were similar to you.
September 20, 201610 yr Kicked her out of college? Sorry, but that's ridiculous. Stupid on the girl's part? Absolutely. Expellable offense? Come on.

September 20, 201610 yr First Im proud to say I've heard of Nick Cannon , shouldnt he be getting kicked off something ? or having biz people drop him ? What a horses backside .

Probably around more kids who were similar to you. :lol2: Well...I knew who those guys were in high school, and you are right I didn't hang around those guys cause they were usually into stuff or doing things that would either get you in trouble with the law, or at least your parents. But I say what I say based not only on my observations, but what I have kids I work with tell me about other kids too and what's going on in the school/community. It's a scary portrait they paint sometimes.
September 20, 201610 yr Correct. No dumber than they were 30+ years ago. Or 40. I've said many times I don't know if I would have been successful in today's college environment. Too many distractions and too much visibility.
September 20, 201610 yr It keeps liberal media happy. MUST BE POLITICAL CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly, to the contrary, I think a state institution trying to keep her and giving her a 2nd chance would have been the PC thing to do. I applaud K-State, and if she wants to get a college education she will find 1,000 other schools ready to take her money. Collossally stupid and offensive should come with consequences.
September 20, 201610 yr Belmont in Nashville expelled a student today . She posted a snapchat of NFL players raising their hand with the caption "POS n....they need a bullet in their head."

What happened to freedom of speech. The NFL guys get away with it, why shouldn't she. It's what our military fought for.
