Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The Myth of Boomer Privilege

You young'uns ain't seen nothing yet.

Yeah, boomers have it easy. Hell, I only had to dodge bullets for 2.5 years. Them folks in the ghettos gotta do it all their life.

Stupid is painful, but I learned that lesson early in life.

I'm a Generation Jones variant of the Boomers. I missed both the Vietnam fireworks and the summer of love,...Woodstock,...all of it.

I'm one of the Boomers that whiled away the time in Discos trying to get laid.

My wife was born in '62,...and even she's considered a Boomer,....even though Charlie Manson went to prison when she was in the second grade.

Regardless of age, if you earned it, it's yours. If you're unable, there's help. If you're unwilling, tough schitt.

that's cuzz you got white privilege DD

Yeah, but you did it sitting in a tin box flying around and around burning somebody else's fuel, not in the asphalt jungle where you gotta get your own wheels to cruise in...talk about privileged! Just sayin'.

BINGO!!!!

Speaking to all who would blame the Boomers or whoever for their current woes...

What I see here is limitless opportunity.

We elected Presidents and representative who made horrible decisions and squandered future generations' money. Mea culpa, guilty as charged. But you, collectively, can change that, all of it.

You can elect Statesmen - people who put the good of their constituents before their own personal gain or the gain of their largest campaign contributors. You can elect Honest Politicians - people who will not say one thing and do another, people in the legislative branch who will diligently study and debate the finer points of each law before passing it, and if in the executive branch will provide the oversight necessary to make sure the bureaucrats operate for the good of the country, not their private fiefdoms.

You can completely pay off the national debt by foregoing government assistance of any kind except in the most extreme situations for genuinely humane motives. For unearned handouts are more addictive then the worst drug and poison the soul worse than any mortal sin.

You can create a world in which human nature itself is reversed and all people act for the greater good and not their own petty self interests.

In short, you have the opportunity before you to create a Utopia Such As The World Has Never Known. And that is capitalized since, despite the efforts of unknown thousands of years of human existence spanning religions both past and present and governmental systems from the purest democracy to the strictest autocracy, no one ever has.


But hey, don't let that stop you! Good Luck! Check in with us in 40 years and let us know how you did!

Laffin.......

It’s all our fault, we work hard, but we should have paid more taxes so the lay abouts could have had more free Cshit. I’m ashamed! I think I’ll quit taking my Social Security. I will ask them to give it to some needy baby mama rughead.

i'm starting to think about a new business. the ghetto thugs have no trng in firearm usage. they're wasting bullets out the gazoo that they either bought with drug/welfare money incomes or they had to go out and steal it.

they shoot and shoot and shoot at rival gangs, and not a drop of blood is shed. they're young, male, ambitious, and likely want to get ahead.

my school would be a shooting school for them. but how would they finance it? maybe a gov't school loan, perhaps?

i didn't have a gov't student loan, or any other kind, but then i already knew how to shoot long before college.

they hold the gun sideways, makes it shoot off to one side, I think

well if anybody thinks the schithead boomers in office are bad, wait until this next crop come of age. they'll be wishing the fuggen boomers were still around. 2050 is going to be a hoot. glad i'll be dead or close to it.

this is a serious drawback for dedicated gang warfare affecting young males with much energy, and drive to succeed.

a school, possibly gov't sponsored, for the needy would suffice to help in them reaching and achieving their goals.

the young subset of citizenry in that zone of their life on earth have much desire to be materialistic. expensive cars turn them on.

i hear that jewelry is also a high value asset. it's a shame they have to rob hard working pawn shop owners for the goods they want.

As written
"Baby Boomers are a generation that grew up in an era of unimaginable prosperity, and failed to realize that in their act of “keeping the good times rolling” cashed checks future generations had to pay."

If you are talking about the national deficit of $21 trillion, yes, that is correct. Our grand children are going to get stuck with that bill. Of course, I blame Washington D.C. and the instant gratification crowd for that $hit.

kwg

Not just those guys.


They are "improving" the highway outside our little town.


The road is perfectly fine. It was ground and chip sealed not long ago.



Nope....we need to spend hundreds of millions on it.


Probably some fugging Federal Mandate requires a new "improved" two lane.

if progress is being over sold, and over done, then let's go back to the horse and buggy world.

grow a little hay, feed a few horses.

build a few leather harnesses.

pretty mules will sell high?

how about buggy whips?

The guilt is killing me. I'm going to go out and throw some change at a homeless millennial.

Unless you were working under the table you had no choice but to pay into those funds, Jim. Came right outta yer check.

Anyway, get off my lawn, zoomer
