#3 Four thousand plus years of survival techniques chucked for the snowflakes. A society and culture that seeks to accommodate the lowest common denominator will soon not be a society or culture.

#4 Did we really need a study to confirm this? Further evidence that common sense is becoming more and more uncommon.

#5 These are the people who think they can just get on a horse and cowboy, when the horses they ride are trail horses who have been taking dumbass tourists on the same worn path for 10 years and are cared for by professional horse people.

If these people had children, they would see at first ball practice who has and who has not caught a ball, or thrown a ball, ran at full speed any distance.

One problem is the coyboys did not learn those things themselves, and cannot teach those skills even if mama let the kids out of the bubble wrap. So when their kids come across other kids whose parents did play wrestle, who did teach them how to hammer real nails at age five, they got all butthurt and lobbied to ban physical activities at schools, safe in the thought that their kids received their liberal upbringings and would excel in the classroom. They forgot physical activity focuses the mind, and they started losing there too. So now they want dumb schools with no physical activity and beta-child hate snitches.

Sorry. Spent the summer in dumbass tourist land.
