Thread Name: BS: Poverty in the USA
Subject: RE: BS: Poverty in the USA
I agree with the TV stuff especially..there is rotgut being served up to the whole nation every night. There is something very distressing..the very creepiness of some young and even not so young men being glorified. Not just foul mouthed, but dirty, unkempt, greasy..you will see a lot of them in various food commercials eating with their mouths open etc. And the cartoons are just appalling...they have to be insulting every ethnic group out there, using the foulest language possible, suggesting not just normal but inappropriate sexual behavior but wierd creepy stuff...it is very alarming to me. Might as well give the kids poison to drink. And we worry about the air pollution index. Perhaps we need an airwave pollution index. One of the worst has two not even very young men, probably in their 30s, taking a young boy, probably 13 or 14, and telling him these nasty things to say to women in stores etc. I have no idea how that is allowed to be broadcast and why it is not considered child abuse as well as sexual harrassment of the women.

And hooray. Rosie O'Donnell is gone from the View. She has a nasty mouth on her. I mean, stevedores (no offense) probably are always going to say bad words when other people aren't looking, but now they blast the air with them, on the bus, in the store......and that leads to other stuff...I think cleaning up the airwaves is a very important step we must take to reverse the fouling of America...mg
