Were have people's manners gone?

[BobMathews]

Hello everyone,

Today I was with my girlfriend standing in line waiting to see the movie "Lord of the Rings." While waiting in line there were about 4 or 5 black guys standing next to us. They were talking to each other and on cell phones speaking in a language i could not understand " booo nop dee bro yo yo broda da" but every once and a while I could make out a few words which they seemed to speak in clear English "beeattch" "mothafugga" and "sheeaat." Since we were waiting in line to see LotR there were elderly people and children present because as many of you know, this is a family movie. I can only speak for myself but I was taught never to use foul language in front of women and children. Upset, I walk up to them and say "didn't your mother ever teach you any manners?" Their response like before was mostly incomprehensible minus a few words such as "dum whitey mothafugga cracka beeattch." I simply responded, "I guess that answers my question" and walked off. What is your people's take on the situation and how would you handle it?

Thanks for your time,


Robert

I lost my mind in a public train station once in a similar situation. I spoke to them, just like you did, with no result. So my mind blanked and I walked right up in his face and expressed my feelings.

The cops were nearby....watching the whole thing.

Ha, ha, ha, excuse my embarrassing error. Either I was getting a little too upset re-playing the event in my mind or it was the Christmas turkey talking!

I don't recall ever using foul language in the presence of a female except in times of EXTREME anger - which are rare and the language brought forth in them is minor.

It's just something I was raised not to do.

Online or with my male friends you'll hear the "fucks" and "shits" and whatnot, but you'll be lucky to hear a "crap" around a girl.

I for one am fucking sick of those cumswallowing cockmongers who don't know how to construct a single fucking sentence without a curse-word.
