NJ School Implements 'No Cursing' Rule But Only for Girls

[Stonepounder]

49. Please note the last sentence of my post.

Yeah, I remember. Not only am I old enough to remember Sir and M'am and no cursing in front of women, I also remember 'women's jobs' vs 'men's jobs', Roe v Wade when it happened, the bus boycott, Kent State and Vietnam, the draft, and getting my 1A classification. I'm old enough to have marched in Civil Rights demonstrations and having to go through a National Guard perimeter to get to my off-campus apartment.

Yeah, I remember. I was tear-gassed when the National Guard marched onto campus at Ohio State University and stared down the rifle barrels of their guns. I was jeered at and had stuff thrown at me when I marched in Civil Rights demonstrations and almost managed to get myself arrested at a sit-in at my congressman's office in favor of the right of a woman to control her own body.

Yeah, I remember. I just sometimes prefer not to. I am in such despair for our country as I see what is happening to it as the Oligarchy continues to tighten its grip on the nation and the world, as I see the world fiddling as the climate burns, as I see the masses swallowing the nonsense that the MSM spews at them about 'takers' and 'terrifying budget deficits' and the like, while at the same time allowing the 1% to rip off the entire fucking world with impunity and no fear of prosecution.

And I look forward and figure that I am a member of the last generation to live in prosperity. I am terrified of what kind of world my grandchildren will inherit.

So, most of the time I tend to try and forget all of that and long for a time when we were more polite to each other.
