In 1987 I was a high school basketball coach in Illinois. I don't know how kids are today when it comes to manners, but I would say when it comes to civil discourse we've deteriorated.
While coaching in a game a player became totally disgusted with how our team was not playing defense. A referee called a foul on one of his team members and the kid, Derrick, said out loud, "Our defense sucks" and a referee immediately whistled him for a technical foul for using bad language.
Times have changed, haven't they? It seems as though one of our political parties is now using the F word as standard operating procedure. As an example:
A Democrat congresswoman is in hot water after making a profanity laced rant on X about President Trump’s recent appearance to the Supreme Court as Justices have oral arguments on birthright citizenship.
Democrat Rep. Susie Lee of Nevada wrote, “I’ll pray they f*ck him to his face. Sorry, I say f*ck a lot these days.”
Need I go on?
