Ya know i understand the 60s, when women's lib was in full swing and they wanted to be independent, but now not to say thanks, or acknowledge a li'll help is just plain rude.

Yesterday i just said to the woman, "your welcome".
I don't get it either Dave
somewhere along the line kids just don't learn or don't bother to follow through with etiquette. The culture these days is about rap and junk like that I guess no time to thank yous

I loudly say you're welcome also when I get silence instead of a simple thank you, even a simple nod of the head would suffice, but people are in a hurry and rude and into their own little worlds I guess, what a shame.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
