    Is it that we have so may rules and laws in place now that some of these offenses should not be happening anymore?

    We don't seem to be a people that has much tolerance anymore.

    For people to learn, to have another opinion, to be immature, to be old, to have a bad day.

    If there is an invasion of bounderies, then surely the person knew better.

    By now everyone should be informed!!!! They should know better.

    Everyone before us has figured it all out so we should know!

    And not only do we get offended but, by GOSH we are right, and you should see things MY way.

    It seems the people that are scared to offend, won't speak up

    and the people that are offensive never shut up!

    We are not alone on this planet, somehow we quit getting along with each other and our very own peace and harmony is most important, How dare us?

    I know I am talking generalities, but it fits for getting pissed when we drive, to all out WAR.

    Seems we really need our rights and wrongs properly defined more and more. People just can't be different, there is a wrong way and a right way for everything.

    Just my thoughts today.

    You're speaking about me, aren't you?

    Just kidding - I have to agree with everything you said. But I wouldn't if I didn't mean it.

    It's evolution in action. One day the people who realize you can't own the earth will outnumber those who don't. I just wish I could live to see it.

    People who generally show intolerance or who get offended easily have a need to grow.

    Due to the influence of mass media, we've beome a society where people have short attention spans and expect things to be easy. When it doesn't (and it shouldn't), they blame others instead of realizing that their own expectations were unrealistic.

    Even if you take a thoughtful approach to life, and speak from the heart, you'll still get criticized and misunderstood sometimes. Anyone who expects everyone to agree with them or expects easy interactions and relationships will be disappointed.

    Very wise words, Gopher.
