Argumentative and confrontational are 2 completely different things!! . Sorry you see the world as a dark place and find your self constantly lashing out. Try finding the good points in a conversation and enjoy your life!!You might check your logic... If anything I pointed a finger at the older generation. That seems to be the point of your post even, so why misstate that in the closer?
And the point still stands, memory lane trip or not, that I was agreeing with the point made that the degradations and losses were in fact "By the votes of our elders and ourselves" as was what I cited in the reply to the post. Sorry not sorry that you didn't like my take which built upon that, however as someone that grew up in a generation that didn't get to memory lane about taking rifles to school and whatnot, I have a memory lane of lots of my elders blaming my generation and younger ones for the losses that we didn't have on our card.
I guess since we grew up without freedoms that were already lost then maybe our memory lane seems darker and more confrontational.
Also, the older gen and the younger gen cannot pass a law with out the cooperation of each other...... so whatever laws are in place now is do to a conglomeration of new and old ................just saying. Hope you find some good memories to reminisce about!!
