Old family expressions--

The problem with the youth of today.
Never were "taught" respect.
Ever find yourself at a green light with one of them walking REAL slow across the street in front of the truck?
Pants halfway down, baseball cap sideways.
With "that look" or ignoring you altogether?
I wish fear still ruled.
Or I was allowed to punch it & run them the **** down.
