1988? She was just a wee one.

The majority of young people as we all once were only think in the present and about themselves.

Ghetto has nothing to do with color, it is a state of mind. A person can be as white as a sheet and still have Ghetto class. To me, the term means low class. Sort of akin to the term "Trailer Trash." Lots of very nice people live in mobile homes, but the low class ones fit into the Trailer Trash category.

^^so true. Recall when we called them "wiggers". So strange to see acting trashy is cool now. How weird.

Here's another example of a person being under the influence of marijuana while on the job and making a stupid decision: Kevin Ward Jr. under influence of marijuana when killed by Tony Stewart car, DA says | NASCAR | Sporting News

Wow, I thought pot was supposed to make a person mellow, not out of control and confrontational , like Ward was on that track !

Whoops, there goes any chance the family would have had of scoring big in a lawsuit against Tony. It is highly unlikely any jury would find Steward guilty when Ward was high on grass.

Apparently few people here have HBO or have been to the movies or read a book in the last 40 years.

"F*ck" is part of the vernacular and it is only in fake media like the "news" is prim and proper Puritan speech required.

The announcer spoke REAL, a rarity in the sanitized fake-news business...good for her.

Bet you would feel differently if someone started saying the F word in front of your Mother or if you have small children. There are times a person has to show a little restraint, respect, and class, that is what separates a decent person from a lowlife.
