Those (and you know what type people they are) who run the media in Hollywood who have saturated the airwaves with filth are to blame as well.

Shocking Photos. These kids have no decency and honor.

The 30 Most Awkward Photos From All Ages Clubs
My thought is probably the opposite of yours. I think that the far-right extremists, the people who consistently attack our national values, are responsible for those relatively few people who behave as seem to so upset you. I do think you're a prude, though, given your comments. And I also think you jump to conclusions about things you seem to know little about. I say that because you don't know in what context the photos were taken.

Lighten up. Respect others a bit more. And let people live their own lives. You'll be much happier that way.

Happy New Year, to all.

At least what's posted here is clean stuff because they kept their clothes on. They get older and then go to raves in which many turn into outright orgies.
Be careful if you decide to google that one because you'll get an eyeful if not outright porn.

Because of abortions. The pregnancy rate though is still the highest of all first world nations.
When compared to other first world countries we are still 3x higher in teen birth rate.

It's a smug feeling when you only compare yourself to yourself. But a worldly comparison is more realistic.
We're pitiful compared to other first world nations. Why is that ?

You're just volunteering for it today.

Abortion rates in the US fell by 5 percent, the biggest single-year decrease in a decade, with teen pregnancies notably on the decline, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said.
A total of 784,507 abortions were reported in 2009, Bloomberg cited a CDC report as saying, with a ratio of 227 abortions for every 1,000 live births.
Teenage pregnancies plunged, with the lowest-ever teen birth rate in 2010 and an even steeper decrease in teen abortions, the report authors said.
Abortion rates in US fall most in a decade, as teen pregnancies decline

If you want me to agree that the teenage pregnancy rate is still too high, and that we would be better off with universal contraception, I have no argument there.

I was only pointing out that one can get a smug feeling from the CDC report which is only comparing us to us. When you look at a world view though..we have a long way to go compared to other first world countries and their stats.

Apparently, most of us weren't even born when "the filth" was duly noted by a nut-case...

"Parallel to the training of the body a struggle against the poisoning of the soul must begin. Our whole public life today is like a hothouse for sexual ideas and simulations. Just look at the bill of fare served up in our movies, vaudeville and theaters, and you will hardly be able to deny that this is not the right kind of food, particularly for the youth...Theater, art, literature, cinema, press, posters, and window displays must be cleansed of all manifestations of our rotting world and placed in the service of a moral, political, and cultural idea."
- Adolf Hitler (Mein Kempf, Vol 1, Chapter 10)

Well Hitler was right, many Jewish people were polluting Germany with sexual filth and vulgarity, just like they are today in America. It (sexual filth) had to be eradicated.

Jews weren't Hitler's only target. But, that wasn't the point he made through that argument. He made that argument against the same kind of "filth" you're alluding to, only presenting it as something new. How old were you back then?

Who exactly is contributing to the moral decay of our youth?
Excuse me!!...........I came across a thread on another forum discussing this and it had one link with those pictures on it. I didn't search the net for each one of those pics like you are trying to accuse me of. I googled the club mentioned and it said the clubs are in LA, San Fran and New York. I posted that info here. Stop insinuating things that are wrong.
