Leno did one of his Jaywalking videos for the 4th of July this year and some surprising results were made known on his latest show. These people just can't be citizens of the US but they sound like they are. Pay attention to the old man knowing so much more than his children and grandchild.


YouTube - Jaywalking - 4th of July (Embarrassing!)

That vid is funny, but it's also sad.

I blame it on video games, reality shows and iPhones...

grandpa obviously went to school back when they were teaching more than putting condoms on cucumbers and 'celebrating diversity'

Just like those who have to save and strive and earn what they have, enjoy and embrace and cherish what they have vs. those who are just given it.

The "grandpa" probably fought in Korea or Vietnam. He also probably didn't have 'No child left behind' or standardized tests to be fine tuned for all year long.

And I agree...it's a sad, sad example of what our future is.

What's even worse, is this is this posters 1st post, and there are people rec'ing it, and yet too cowardly to put their names on it.

Yeah, we don't have race problems in the U.S.
