When long haired bearded, T shirted, jeans and sandal wearing teachers told their school pupils to call them "Dave" not Mr. When the lovely word "Gay" was taken over by people with an abnormal sexual preference! When Prisons where no longer feared for their harsh regimes, but were turned into sanitised living accommodation, being attractive places to live with all mod cons provided, along with the abolishment of Capital and Corporal punishment and last but not least the human rights PC brigade! In my opinion all those things have done a great deal to affect the great downhill slide that has befallen modern society.
