We have allowed EVERYTHING to degrade in America. Education, entertainment, news reporting. A simplistic memory of what America was like in the "good old days" and a juvenile wish to return to those golden years today.
The Violence is simplified and glorified.

THE GODDAMN LARNIN' CHANNUL has Honey fucking booboo and other delicious reality shows that celebrate ignorance, avarice greed and violence: Brides of Beverly Hills. The Little Couple. Toddlers and Tiaras. Cheer Perfection. Sister Wives. Long Island medium (She knew I'd list her show, the ghosts told her) The GODDAMN LEARNING CHANNEL!

Violence in entertainment is generally shown as the first andONLY answer to any wrong or perceived wrong. You can go to jail for 50 years if you steal money from a bank or a millionaire. The millionaire will not go to jail for the same crime.
Thanks to the FUCKING REPUBLICAN PARTY, con-servatives and ALEC you can now say (In some states) " I was skeered of peein' my panties so I shot him in the face." Stand your fucking ground...thanks GOP, Gun Lobby and ALEC for legalizing murder in America for gutless cowards with a gun.

WWF, WWE, MMA, violent sports. Any argument in a bar or on the street will end up in gunfire before a fist is thrown. You can kill someone now and quote the Bush Doctrine as a defense for ambushing people in their own yard!
