I’m offended at people calling college kids, idiots, dumb, and stupid. I’m a 60 year old Mother of two girls (grown) and I never thought college kids were dumb or stupid. Ofcourse they sometimes aren’t as responsible as I’d like for them to be, but they have ideas, opinions, open minds, a interest in learning and we old farts can learn a thing or two from them.
They’re our future, it’s exciting they have an interest in the political process, even if they don’t always carry through like we think they should. Don’t undermine or belittle their enthusiasm for our country and how or who runs it. You really show how old and stuck in an old way of thinking when you criticize the youth or tomorrow.
