A NATION OF WIMPS

We are doomed.

I repeat - - - WE - - - ARE - - - DOOMED.

We are doomed as a society, as a nation and as a culture.

Why do I say this? Because of something that I recently was involved with and witnessed. It seemed like a small incident at the time, however, the reaction of the people just made me realize that we are destined to be destroyed.

 

I'm not going to mention the name of the business, but just to let you know that it is a retailer with a very well known name, that deals in mostly in both women's and men's clothing and accessories.  Over the last weekend, during the early afternoon, a small electrical fire erupted. It came from a light fixture where there was a small explosion, followed by a ball of flame.  The fire, though small was enough though for the fire alarm to go off, and for the management to call for the evacuation of the building. Because of the fact that a small fire may erupt into a big one

 

The manager of the store twice went on the intercom system to announce that the building had to be evacuated.  The more intelligent people calmly left through the front of the building and out into the parking lot.

 

However, it was the people who remained behind that I helped the management with in order to get them to evacuate that - - - really - - - I will give the following examples - - - and really - - - you just can't make these things up. And I need to emphasize that these following acts were done by men and women both.

 

Also, I need to emphasize that the smell of smoke was now throughout the building and the fire alarm was sounding off.

 

Two women with their arms full of dresses and other items were arguing that they have been there for hours and were demanding that we take the time to put their names on their merchandise and hold it.

 

Three teenagers were sitting on a sofa, yes, you guessed it, mindlessly staring at the screens of there iPhones and texting.

 

A man arguing that he wanted the salesperson in jewelry first take the time to show him a Burberry watch.

 

Two women refusing to leave because the had not decided on which shoes they needed to take and still had some pairs to try on.

 

One woman taking pictures of boots and shoes with her iPhone in order to send to some other woman 20 miles away to show her and ask for her opinion telling me, "I just have to take pictures of two other pair, can you wait a minute?"

 

Another woman asking if she has time enough to try a dress on in the dressing room.

 

Two women with an eight year old boy in a dressing room trying clothes on the child informing me that the boy is not dressed, should they put some clothes on him first.

 

One woman looking at me with a snide expression asking me, "Is this really necessary?"

 

Once outside, there were three fire trucks and a police vehicle parked right at the front entrance, lights all flashing, people asking, "Can we go in?"

 

One guy, who looked like "Pajama Boy" above coming up to me with an agitated tone in his voice as if he was now REALLY inconvenienced, asking me, "Do you know how long this is going to take?" I told him no that I did not. He then demanded, "Well, can you tell me who CAN tell me how long?" I said yes and pointed to the Fire Chief and said, "He can."

 

Guys coming up saying, "Can we go in real quick? We know what we want and exactly where it is. It will only take a minute."

 

But the topper had to be the two teenage girls who waited for three hours for the store to reopen because one of them "simply just had to have" this certain pair of sunglasses.

 

I just looked at them all and said to myself, "We're doomed. THIS - - - is what is going to inherit America. We are all good as dead."

 

I don't know what started it or what created this, but we are now A NATION OF WIMPS. I don't know where the blame lies or of the origins. The 60's, feminism, political correctness, whatever. But people today are spoiled self centered brats, (in any age group), and have placed themselves in a bubble and have no concept of reality.

 

I'm going to say something that might really offend, but right now, I don't care. To our men and women in the military: Do your time, walk away, and collect your pensions because the people who will inherit America have now proven themselves UNWORTHY to be a true Americans.  The enemy can right now, just walk over our borders and take over without firing a shot because everyone is so self absorbed into the unimportant.

 

And I can just see these so called American citizens of today, when the enemy is here and has them all lined up. When they force them to kneel down and begin to saw their heads off with a butcher knife. They will stare at it in disbelief and cry out "Look at that man with the knife and what he is doing! That is soooooo RUDE!"
