If you are allowed to get away with spamming the boards then so can I. 2 wrongs do not make a right. Also, you're only showing your childish behaviour. What happened to that maturity of yours? To make matters even worse, you're just giving more ammunition for the youngsters on here. ID: 1717783 ·

Also, I do not think you will find (here or much elsewhere) these transitioning 40-somethings you seek. Yes I fear you are quite right about that. And we I know why as well. I don't know why, so please state your views & do not profess to speak for others. That's your major failing on these boards. ID: 1717787 ·

But I do see stalking and sustained harassment as requiring legal redress. When some person says something and the same 3 or 4 people all turn up and decry it, then it is fairly obvious that there is a some sort of organised response going on. Well whoopie doo, I should be so deserving .... The community of posters in Politics is relatively small. Thus, when you simply tell your opinion via many many posts, it should not be surprising to find dissent. I notice you skipped over this part. ID: 1717797 ·

You start threads en masse and I have opinions about the topics. Are these boards just for people that already agree? BOORING! ID: 1717805 ·

Pediaphobia - The fear of infants and/or young children Ephebiphobia - The fear of youth Gerontophobia - The fear of elders/seniors These fears often lead to discrimination. Any discrimination based on age is called ageism; discrimination against youth specifically is called adultism. The fear of youth is not a recent phenomenon: a cover title of Newsweek Magazine in 1954 read, "Let's Face It: Our Teenagers Are Out of Control." However, ephebiphobia is alive more than ever right now. In 2002, author Mike Males wrote, "Ephebiphobia... is a full-blown media panic. Images of â€œordinaryâ€ teenagers besieging grown-up havens are everywhere... Todayâ€™s ephebiphobia is the latest installment of a history of bogus moral panics targeting unpopular subgroups to obscure an unsettling reality: Our worst social crisis is middle-Americans own misdirected fear."

Janne 1 and Chris 0. Hehe glad you are enjoying the side show Sarge, complete with movie breaks. I hope it gets to J=100 Vs C=0 the more Janne posts the more silly he makes himself look, bring it on I say. Popcorn anyone? Sarge asked why there were no 40 year olds around. Simple answer is that they are out there running the world we live in. Those that gravitate to on line bulletin boards are the youngsters who think the world is being run wrongly, and the elder people who are now past running it. These sort of places are irrelevant to the shakers & movers. He's got a long way to go to catch up with you. You okay? that second underlined comment does not make sense after what you posted previously on various threads: - You are working behind the scenes to enable changes. Aren't you an elder that is past it? An elder that was young once or was you cloned? ID: 1718101 ·

I'll choose when I leave Seti politics, I won't be hounded out in the meantime. The only one doing the hounding is yourself. I've said it before & I'll say it again. Your views are not the be all & end all of life, so please allow others theirs. Your problem is that you've made a rod for your own back. When the young on these boards see that, your only reply is to ridicule them. The trouble is that you can dish it out, but can't take it. Lovely example to set the young & you're behind the scenes? That's what is wrong with society, the wrong people in the wrong places. ID: 1718113 ·

Now shall we make a list, oooh where shall we start, plenty of material on these boards. Would you care to start the ball rolling? Sorry, we are sidestepping Tami's thread, wanna start a new one, I'm starting my list now! Lists? Sounds like J Edgar Hoover to me:( Or STASI:( ID: 1718133 ·
