Your saying I don't speak with many? Don't assume. You calling me simple? I have knowledge beyond my years. And Sir I have nereve. You know this.
Wait your quoting @BLAZINGGIANTS from another thread? Anyway, I am glad to debate with you. I try to teach all my students to have their own opinions and to arrive at their own conclusions. I respect that you hold your ground. Thats the mark of a smart man.
So uh this was a big issue of mine yesterday. Young guy at work is playing some metal music where they don't sing but growl. I told him I couldn't stand it BUT I remembered people my age at the time talking shit about Nirvana. I told him I'm cool with his music but it is not for me. Those people weren't around me back then.
Yes. A mistake. I was going to quote him until I noticed it was early in the thread, and too old to agree with. My error.
Maybe we're both wrong on everything we agree with the political parties on. We should make a list and then flip like Costanza
Woah woah....Nirvana isn't growling. Look I get what your saying, but these kids may not get that they don't make music like they used too anymore. And, I'm not saying all kids are genuious and know right. There are some smart kids with really good ideas that I have had the pleasure of having in my classes. Hearing them eases my feelings about the future.
First, holding your ground in the face of contradictory evidence is not "the mark of a smart man". Second, this whole "young people are the future thing" is garbage. We've all been there. How many of those kids in HS have taken a civics course? How many know what the Constitution says or what rights citizens have? You don't want people to have guns? Great. Go somewhere where that's the law. Want to have the government tap everything in your house in case you say something criminal? Sweet...there are places for that. Don't like habeus corpus? There are places for you. Want to be able to legally mutilate the genitals of little girls? There's a place for you. Want to make it so that everyone has to have the same religion (or that religion is banned)? There's a place for you. Except none of that goes on in America. And one of your civic rights is not to unilaterally change the fabric of our country because you saw a snapchat with a cool Che quote. You can ask for it all you want. I get to fight it with everything I've got. Edit: There's a reason that there aren't a lot of generals who are younger than 45. Or officers younger than 21. Or enlistees younger than 17. In the military, at least, we don't vote on what rules we enact.
First, a man who holds his ground is pretty respectable in my book. If thats not the case in yours ok. Secondly, pretty soon old people gonna die, young people are going to inherit the mess. Youngsters are the future and we need to teach them to think for themselves and to be openminded. Not to be zombies. Things are changing. 2018 is nothing like 1950. I'm not arguing against the constitution. I am not sure where you got that. And I don't do snap chat. I get the reference though.
Very True. And I can vouch for that too. I could tell you more, but might be best to leave it for another day.
