We seem to be breeding idiots

There is a type of Youtube video that ive just come across,

 

people, usually teenagers or ones in their 20's doing really dumb things and filming it.

 

i wonder just how many of these 'future of our kind' kids end up in hospital and worse in a wheelchair for the rest of their lives.

 

clips allways end before the aftermath.

i certainly would never condone these stupid stunts.

 

no matter how funny they look on the surface.

Awwww geez!!!  I should have known better than to open that link!

 

A warning that it was graphic might have been nice.

 

2 seconds in and I had to back out.

and your point is?

Kids have been doing stupid, dangerous, thoughtless things for generations.  The difference now is there are cameras everywhere to catch the action and facebook and youtube to show it to everyone.

That's exactly what I was going to say earlier, but decided not to bother.

The other thing is that if both parents are idiots, what else can they breed except an idiot? Any generation is a product of the generation before it, and parents & society are ultimately responsible for how the next generation turns out.

And other idiots who encourage them by posting links and giving them even more publicity.
