America, Captured In A Single Photo

[wkmac]

This is a perfect image of what America is and only what it is capable of producing. And yet you still maintain a holy allegiance to the institution(s) that is today's America. Little more than rats in a cage entertaining themselves only to grow up and produce more rats that perpetuate the very institutions which inflict and promote such mindlessness.

Don't act all surprised. Maybe they are all getting a participation trophy too?

People having a good time at a ball game is bad?

Evil Women!

Plain old vanity. Woman is thy name.

Sorority girls.

I've met the type in my day. The advent of smartphones has taken it to a whole new level.

America gets to see the best it can produce. This isn't about the girls as much as what it sez about the generations before them from which they emerged. And what does this say about the institutions these girls directly took part from which they learned and got their instructions for life?

People paying good money to watch a ball game yet choosing to take selfies instead? Yes, bad thing.

This thread has less to do with their sex and more to do with their reflection of the decay of our society as a whole.

There was nothing going on at the time the cameras captured them. And this is what is wrong with America? No, it's people who preach freedom and then criticize others when they are acting on those freedoms. They were probably doing a sorority bonding event. They can't have fun outside of watching the game?

most young people eventually grow up. i'm optimistic on american youth and on america.

Sorority girls have always been like that. They just have fancier toys now.

Vain, cute and self absorbed.

I guess none of them were old enough to go get a beer or it was past the 7th inning.

Probably the daughters of the ones I met.

Chicks at a game. Probably don't even know whats going on. Or, it might be between innings?

Businessmen in suits are no different. They go to the game yet spend the whole time on their cellphones.

Yea, you see that a lot at weeknight Rangers games too. Corporate types entertaining clients while they are in the city on business.
