IF AMERICA CAN EVER TURN THIS GODDAM ECONOMY AROUND...HERE IS A SOLUTION FOR THESE LIL SHITS...DROP THE WORKING AGE TO 12 AND THESE LEECHES NEED TO GET A JOB AND DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE
Trayvoning: This Trend Has to Stop
No matter what side of the fence people stand on regarding George Zimmerman’s guilt or innocence in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, I thought there was one thing that was understood across the board: His death was a tragedy. That obviously isn’t the case from a new trend that’s popped up on the web mocking the 17-year-old’s murder.
Following in the footsteps of other ridiculous pose trends like planking and owling is the most disturbing and disrespectful of them all: Trayvoning. Photos have surfaced on the Internet of teenagers—all white from what I’ve seen so far—laying on the ground in hoodies as though they’re dead with a can of iced tea in one hand and a bag of skittles in the other, mocking the items the slain teenager purchased from a corner store minutes before he was shot and killed.
What’s even more disturbing is there are Trayvoning Facebook pages where these individuals are posting their pictures and asking people to share and like the page to increase its popularity. So far, there are only 24 likes on one and 67 on the other, but that’s still 91 too many. On one page it’s clear from the comments that the participants think this is a fun and cool thing to do, the other seems to have a backward goal of raising awareness which really isn’t warranted at this point and definitely can’t be achieved in this way. I can’t think of anyone’s murder—black or white—that has ever been mocked in such a disrespectful way and this act is just further proof that it’s impossible for America to see a black boy as a victim. I get that social media sort of changes the sensitivity rules in some ways but we’re still talking about a death and I highly doubt any of these people were rallying in their cities or pushing for charges to be brought against Zimmerman. They’re trying to make a joke out of something tragic and it’s just not funny. I personally reported these pages on Facebook and anyone who comes across them should too. We can’t stop these fools from posing and taking pictures but we can stop it from spreading on social media.

thats just wrong

Most US kids are unemployed and/or not challenged in school. This is the result. Not surprised at all.
Also, NYSTATE, there aren't enough jobs for 18-yr-olds. How are you going to put even younger children to work?

Population control is the only thing that will save any country. There are too many mouths to feed in the United States and not enough jobs or resources. Its time we scale back.

Most US kids wouldn't even think to work at McDonalds, Wendy's, Kohl's, or at stores at the Mall---they believe it's beneath them. Many believe that good jobs should be "given" to them. Just as many believe that they should be able to play Xbox and smoke weed all day, and not have to pay rent to their parents.
We have a virtually a generation of kids spoiled by their parents.

I disagree. Parents should spoil their kids. Any parent forcing their child to "pay rent" is a moron. What would be the point of that? Families used to take care of each other and this is precisely what has been lost which has led to the pathetic circumstances many find themselves in. The "you are on your own" mentality has effectively destroyed any possible accumulation of familial wealth.

I believe jobs should be given to people if possible. There are many people willing to work, its the hoops and hurdles that people have to jump through which is also the problem. I think there should a city by city list of jobs available at the courthouse-public works projects etc.-where anyone can show up and given a task that needs to be done.

I find this hilarious.
Im sure it would be pretty horrendous for the parents, but im not the parents.
Yes, his death was a tragedy, but this is still pretty effin' funny.

I will also add this. Notice how many immigrants own small businesses and run by their entire families, and they tend to live in the same house or houses. They usually become highly successful because this is the TOTAL OPPOSITE of the "You are on your own" mentality that has destroyed Americans. Native born Americans own fewer and fewer businesses now and it is directly related to the idiocy of the "you are on your own" mentality.

Is it wrong I can't stop laughing ??? ;D

Because many of the 18 yr and up are stuck in a perpetual "man-child"/"woman-child" phase, where they have no job, smoke weed/do hard drugs all day, play video games, and or get someone pregnant/get pregnant. Expect their folks to pay for everything. Take care of their kids. They have no responsibilities. And they look at working at McDonald's as beneath them.
Familial weath is almost a thing of the past, when your spending it on drugs, running up the electric and water bills, and not paying or the parents are spending it on drug rehab, paying for your car insurance, and other expenses. Back in the days of what you are talking about, people were a lot more responsible. They didn't want to disrespect their folks by being lazy eff-ups. Nowadays, it's the norm to be a lazy Mofo---it's cool.
Where I live about, 5-6 of the Mcdonald's have predominantly Latino employees. Remember that big issue that former Maryland Gov, Donald Shaeffer caused--saying he shouldn't have to know spanish to order something from Mcdonald's? Well, that is right near where I live. Many of our lazy kids could be working there, but refused to.

Totally related.....skittles = post workout carb....the drink is an energy drink...needed for those days where you need that extra boost to go to war with the iron.

Ah, you see many immigrant families who do that---their kids have respect for their folks, but they are also expected to run the family business. Also, as a side note, those businesses are often targeted by family members and are robbed---but they don't report it to the police. For instance, many Korean owned businesses, the owners don't trust the banks, so they horde cash at home...many of that money is not reported to the IRS either...so, a family member or someone who knows where the money is hidden, often times robs them---since they are general close knit communities, they don't report it to the police---also because the the IRS may get involved...they handle it internally.
-
Who's fault is that? The parents...that's who.
They raised lazy kids. Kids don't just develop mass-laziness on their own. It's a learned behavior.
I agree.

Im sure it would be pretty horrendous for the parents,
x2 hopefully it's too stupid to catch on.
Mocking the candy crosses the line.
It is unwise to speak against it.

Maybe Trayvon should have had a job.....

Families used to take care of each other, yes. Kids used to also respect their parents. Kids didn't have the overwhelming 'entitlement' attitude they have now. They also appreciated the things they were given. The didn't act like ho's, brats, thugs, zombies, gangsters, etc, etc...like they do now. You got your ass beat in public if you showed an adult disrespect. There is so much that has been lost and cast away from how things used to be. Most of those kids now are the parents...and are reaping what they sow. Their kids are worse than they ever were....unfortunately we are taking the brunt of it. When I was a kid..one of my summer jobs was the oh so typical 'strawberry picking' job. Holy shit was that a pain in the ass. I rode my bike to the farm...20 - 30 mins....worked outside, had a bag lunch....then after being there 7 - 4, I rode my bike home. I appreciated the money I made...I did not do a great job saving...but I earned it.
I do agree that population control needs to be instilled. The one fuck stick with 30 kids by 11 different women....both he and the women should be put on a boat and set adrift...see ya...have a nice 3hr tour....don't come back till your heard has been whittled down.

Boom!!!!!!!
Come to California and see how the Jewish Community does it. They dont force them to "make it on their own"... Its done as a family

They also respect their elders as well...and the family has their kids backs even if they are habitual eff ups. This sometimes brings down the family name, fortune, etc. Then the kid maybe "distanced" till they clean up their acts, but they still get the support from their family.

the short answer to the headline: fatherless families mostly, and/or crappy homelife/childhood. The cycle repeats.

Good post bro.

What adonis said is common, sense. I didn't have jewish parents thats just the way I was raised. I'm 25 and my dad still has access to my bank account, it keeps me from drinking my savings.
If you live under a high cost of living which most people do, you either need debt or need to rely on family.

Spoiling kids is absolutely the wrong thing to do and moronic. In nature the strongest survive. Spoiling kids mean the parents are not providing their children the means to survive in the world on their own.
Europeans built a great civilization by NOT spoiling their kids. Jews like Adonis are doing their best to tear down Western civilization and this is but one more idea they have towards this goal: spoiling your kids.
My advice to all races is follow the jews advice.
Whites on the other hand, don't spoil your kids and teach them to bust their asses and have 6-8 kids. Sacrifice for the children but make them appreciate what they have.
My plumber is white, has almost 10 kids and they each are working from age 10, earning wages here and there to help the family.
Here is another jew, nathalie rotchilds, doing her best to promote a genderless society in Sweden. All with the hopes of reducing the birthrates of White Europeans even more.

In Sweden the phrase “his and hers” isn’t just archaic or politically incorrect, it’s grammatically incorrect too. The country’s online National Encyclopedia was recently updated to include a third pronoun to accommodate the rising trend of gender neutrality in Sweden. The pronouns for “he” and “she” (in Swedish “han” and “hon”) are now joined by the genderless pronoun “hen.”
But the change isn’t just linguistic. In 2010, the World Economic Forum declared Sweden the most gender-neutral country in the world, and gender neutrality is changing Swedish culture in profound ways. A children’s department store has dissolved its “girls” and “boys” sections, and a number of Swedish activists are lobbying for the right of parents to name their children across gender lines. “The idea,” writes author Nathalie Rothschild, “is that names should not be at all tied to gender, so it would be acceptable for parents to name a girl Jack or a boy Lisa.”
So far, the most jarring (or liberating) development in the gender-neutral cultural war is a photo in a popular Swedish toy catalogue depicting a little boy in a Spiderman costume posing daintily while he pushes a bright-pink pram. The poster child, perhaps, for the “hen” generation.

If you live under a high cost of living which most people do, you either need debt or need to rely on family.
At 25, you should be responsible enough to Not flounder away your savings. That should have been taught to you. Parents teach life lessons, and give boundaries. You should have been taught the value of money. You piddle it away as an adult, oh well.
And what happens if your father develops a habit? I knew of someone whose parents had a drug habit---and what did they do? They access their grown childrens bank accounts and cleaned them out.
The problem today is too many parents coddle their kids---playing best friend. Yes, parents help their kids, but many times parents enable their kids---the kids know that they can eff up, because they know their parents are there to clean up their messes. I've seen it where parents have put their homes for their grown children to post bond---and then they fail to appear for court...and now the parents have liens on their homes. The excuse? "I overslept".
So now you have 70-80 yr old parents with hundreds of thousand dollar liens on their homes. And it is a common thing.
And you know what? The parents end up spending their savings and when the kids get older, they put the parents in nursing homes.

Maybe Trayvon should have had a job.....
There was only one Batcreak that I rember posting here---back in 2000-2001.

very true, i had good parents
my mother bitched me out yelling and screaming, i hated her but she made me fear doing wrong
my dad took me to play video games at the arcade as a kid, he also taught me not act all bratty like my cousins. But i always felt guilty as shit when my dad would put a 10 dollar bill in for quaters, i was like dad dont spend all that much money on me, its too much! I just didnt feel i deserved it. My mom was highly conservative bitching my dad out about spending money ect. My dad was an opposite but he never cursed a day in his life he might of said black a couple times but never any other word. My mom sweared allot but she held down a job all her life same with my father
both parents always pressed on me about how people in the world get what they deserve, what goes around comes around a common slogan
i grew up wanted to be tuff like my parents cause i know they worked every day and didnt sit on there ass all day collecting welfare like stupid n1ggers and dumb rednecks

I believe jobs should be given to people if possible. There are many people willing to work, its the hoops and hurdles that people have to jump through which is also the problem. I think there should a city by city list of jobs available at the courthouse-public works projects etc.-where anyone can show up and given a task that needs to be done.
great idea adonis, something like this should be "common knowledge" word around the streets. People should know where to fucking go for work !

In Maryland they have a job search place in the courthouse facility. They help yo with getting jobs, summer work...sort of like a State version of Manpower.

You are exactly right about the jumpin through hoops part. I own a small company and employ 7 people but would like to hire more, but can't because of the red tape. I will also say, that the average $12hr dude is lazy though and doesnt want to work. I would hire Mexicans if I could, but 30% of my work is on base or requires certified payrolls so I can't

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
For the sexes to appreciate each other, we must celebrate diversity, not ignore it and pretend it doesn't exist by re-writing the books on gender. If anything, this proposed solution simply creates gender confusion, and confusion breeds misunderstanding. And the seeds of misunderstanding can lead to hatred and discrimination. This so-called gender neutral society sews the very seeds of its own undoing. How misguided...
We can no more make a woman into a man, than we can turn a pitbull into a poodle. What next, remove testosterone and estrogen from the body? Cut off breasts and penises? Create eunuchs and birth children in pods? How eutopic!
Why not just do what the Muslims do then. Give everyone a burka (except give them to males and females) and that way we don't have to be "offended" by these gender issues.
In fact, let's remove names altogether, everyone becomes a number.
No more sex either, since we can't have people sexualizing one another. Let's just breed out that part of the brain, and all become hermaphrodites so we can reproduce with ourselves like worms.
Seems like Sweden is on the path to enlightenment.
Well ranted. Let me know if you're gonna be at the Dunmore this year.
