A link with excerpts from "Brave New World"

You weren't around when we had the Burton City Hubcap. What you have stated here is the basic ethos of Burton City.
Burton City, of course, is a town near where I grew up:
www.100megsfree3.com/rdmj/index008ha.html
What would happen as cars came through town at 50+ mile per hour they would suddenly hit a railroad track (next to the IGA). If you took the tracks too fast you would lose a hubcap, and I would sometimes see them lying against the side of the building. The joke was that the Burton City High School football team should be called "The Burton City Hubcaps".
Of course, there was no high school football team.
There was no high school, either.
Every once in a while I listen to egomaniacs like the ones on THC talk about "red staters" this or that. They talk about them like they were ignorant hicks. They talk about them like they are lower forms of life, and this comes from the biggest assholes on the forum, like Grumbidipshit and Ram Buzzjet.
My stepfather, who still lives in Burton City, is probably the finest man I have ever known. Unpretentious, hard working, generous, wouldn't say a bad word about anybody behind their back and rarely to their face. Salt of the earth.
It really chaps my ass that these blue state punks think they should be able to tell a fine man like my stepfather what he can think and what he can say. Take his tax dollars like they own them - all this from dipshits who have yet to have a real job, let alone work a lifetime to get what they have.
But I digress. No, the small towns haven't completely escaped. Some of the school systems still insist on trying to neuter boys. I was talking to someone the other day about why there was so much rage in the world.
In the old days we would settle it outside. That's what boys do. Over the years, though, boys have been told not to be boys, and I say a lot of the rage (and even school shootings) comes from the fact that there are too many people who want to kick somebody's ass and still more people who need to have their asses kicked.
The testosterone overdosed boys want to fight but the school systems are trying to turn them into girls, so they pick up a gun.
Granted, guns don't make you a man and fighting doesn't make you a man. But the insult of trying to change the fundamental nature of the male of the species has really taken it's toll on this country.
The Nutty Professor over on THC said the other day that we would never win another war like the Revolution or WWII because Americans don't have the stomach for fighting anymore.
I think it all goes back to the feminization of the American male.
Have you ever noticed that in TV shows and commercials over the last 20 years the husband/father is always some putz who can't put his shoes on unless they're labeled?
One of my favorite movies that has come out recently is "The Incredibles".
Although the Incredibles are super heroes they have the same problems as any other family. Mr. Incredible is a bit out of shape and has a shitty job with a little dictator for a boss. Mrs. Incredible has a bubble butt and her whiny teenage daughter and hyperactive son keep her hands full.
But Mr. Incredible is not the sitcom dad. He has convictions and keeps to them. He's strong and can keep harm from coming to his family.
It's odd that it took a cartoon to show us what a real dad looks like.
Now, dumb assholes like Grumblibear and Strat might scoff at the idea of a cartoon, but truth is where you find it.
And speaking of marriage, anybody who's been married more than a few years knows that love is a choice you make, not a feeling. There are times when you "feel" like strangling her, and "love" is a distant memory.
But you make the choice to stay and not strangle her anyway, and over the years it comes to you that "love" is an action word - it's something that you do, not a feeling.
Yet, left wing morons will insist against all logic that queers can't help who they "fall in love" with, when, in every other human relationship "love" is a choice.
Do I care about what queers do?
No. What I care about is left wingers trying to tell me there is something wrong with me that I am not going to accept their counterintuitive, illogical dreck.

If you go through the small towns in America, and the suburban areas of the cities you'll often find family values of respect for elders, boys being boys, men being men and so forth. The trouble comes from those that did not receive these foundations early in life. They were brought up to think they had been left in the gutter, so now they can only steal and it's not their fault. They were brought up thinking that drugs will expand your mind when it actually clouds one's judgement.
