I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

You mean those "motivational" posters correct? Someone here knows how to do it I'm sure. When it gets posted up, I want it too.

This bothers me. I am a teenager, 17 years old, I don't use profanity, my friends don't. Please don't group my friends and I with the other idiots that the OP had to deal with. It makes me irate when I see adults jaded against teens because of their general assumption that all kids are idiots.

It is a fact of life that we, as a population, group ourselves generationally; don't let it bother you. When you get to be 35, you will probably feel the same way. 
Generalizations are there for a reason; they represent the "norm". I was once a tax auditor, but i wasn't soulless. I like cats, but i'm not a lil old hermit. I like firearms and enjoy some hunting, but i don't eat meat much. such is life.

He'll probably feel that way by the time he's 20. I did.
Heck I was 19, had just come back from Afghanistan, went to the mall, and the first words out of my mouth were "stupid GD kids.."

I meant FROM a gun...
I would love a gun that fires 15 pound projectiles at 1000 fps, in a concealed carry package.
But maybe a phaser is more plausible...

I hear that...I'm 28 and I feel the same way. Even had to tell some rowdy teens at DQ to shut the heck up after hearing them drop the f bomb and numerous others while my wife and 3 yr old son and I had some ice cream. Don't get me wrong I cuss like a sailor, well a truck driver at least, but I don't do it in front of my son or anyone else's kids. I consider myself to be a respectful person.
BTW trip, thanx for your service, its an honor to be a fellow member of this site with you.
I won't pretend like I know how the op feels as I've never been in that situation where the "bg" was just a kid. A buddy of mine and I were once mugged, if you could call it that but it ended with no lose of life for anyone.
