I hate thieves

I ain't much over 50, so I probably missed the beginning of that, but I grew up in the 70s and 80s in the Panhandle of FL. I'd carry a 22/.410 around in the woods, walk for what seemed miles, never hurt no one. Never wanted to... just being Free... crime wasn't like that back then. I really only noticed it slipped in the late 80s and 90s, (gangster rap, devil music, evil films,commercials w/ glorification of both, then add sex, violence, drugs, ect. The Total corruption of Everythin' right and left side of the fence. Including Society in General. Its a Slow Decline, and it's all By Design! i for one am sick as heck of it, the Country I grew up in has been changed, by evil. Tampa is Shot, the town I came from, before coming here, Jacksonville, is 14th WORST in the US! It wasn't that damn bad 30 some odd years ago...
I HATE to bring up a politician but it's the truth......long about the time Lyndon Johnson did some of the things he did is when it started sliding out of control. We can point to some things well before that, but by and large, that's it. ......and again, I'm not trying to politicize this, as in MY opinion, it's not a republican or democrat thing. It's a crooked politician thing. There's plenty enough of those on both sides so neither side can really point the finger at the other.
