What's wrong with this generation? "68 year old bullied by teenagers"

Jesus Christ, what's wrong with kids these days?

Karen Klein a 65 year old bus monitor is mercilessly bullied and verbally harassed by a group of middle schoolers on their way home from Athena Middle School in Greece, New York.
In the disturbing video, the children can be heard yelling at Klein, calling her an "ugly fat ass" and telling the widow, "you don't have a family because they all killed themselves because they don't want to be near you."


Here's the video link [youtube.com]. And it broke my heart.


Support has been pouring in and indiegogo [indiegogo.com] has collected over $440,000 for her!


Spare the rod...Spoil the child. I'd like to slap these kids silly.MadMadMad

I see two sentences in a row trying really hard to relate to one another - but failing miserably.
I think you are misreading the actual source of the failure in this case.

Perhaps... let me read that again. Nope, nope, I'm pretty sure your imaginary friend has nothing to do with my moral principals. Personally I wouldn't do what these kids did to any person for any reason - but not because I'm afraid of imaginary punishment 40ish years from now (statistically speaking, of course.)

It's a misconception that stuff like this is some type of new occurrence. We simply here about these things more because of the pervasiveness of the internet in today's society.

You seem to be quite confused as to the relation between the two sentences. Are you suggesting that one is the result of the other? That certainly isn't what I said but it is kind of funny that you would automatically become defensive and jump to that conclusion.

Every generation thinks the younger generation is going downhill. Makes me giggle. Teehee

yeah, if the younger generation is going downhill then we have to make ways
and roads to guide them on the right track. Unfortunately, we are
not fulfilling our responsibilities and finally blaming the new generation..!!EEK!Mad

Hardly defensive, but now I'm definitely curious why a person would post one sentence, and then start the other with "no wonder why" and then claim that it wasn't intended as a result of the other.
