I get tired of young people's ...lack of civility and sensitivity for energies over 30. It happens at work for me lately - it's sickening.
Note: I'm still advocating for a free forum.

Woah woah, where the hell do you pull that statement from lack of civility? It's interesting to note that the majority of the people I associate with are OVER 30, and even 40 because the 'kids' my age have that lack of civility and are grossly immature. Please don't stereotype me like that. I respect my elders tenfold. If I had such a lack of civility for people over thirty do you think I would of moved back out of my house again to get away from my parents instead of confronting the problem head on (being it seems some people got a good laugh out of my parents post)? I respect my parents, and hope they don't go the route like so many do of divorce which is something on the table at the moment.
The only lack of civility I have is toward the ignorant, and I even recognize that and choose to work upon it.
Yes, I have gone out and made some blatant statements lately where people have been taken pretty back by them and just thinking "jeez, that kid has a lot to learn." However, it's mostly out of my patience that can only go so far, and I began to get a bit headstrong on my beliefs.
I am glad you're advocating a free forum but there is a serious principal at hand and people do not seem to be critically thinking about it. They aren't and I am seeing the rise of mob pyschology, cult thinking, which is the same thing I see in my god damn living room with my family and friends glued to CNN. We talk about waking up the masses when people on this forum alone need to wake the hell up.
::deep breath:: Sorry for my rant. It happens. Namaste.
