No, the Boomers were on drugs.

They invented the concept that personal happiness trumps everything else, be it their children's wellbeing or everyone else's freedom.

They grossly expanded social entitlements that my generation will have to pay for.

They are all talk an no action. They see the 1st Amendment as an absolute right and the 2nd Amendment as an outdated concept.

They are supremely confident that they are right about everything. When a concept is proven conclusively wrong, the person who conducted the study is obviously biased--or it just needs more time and more money to work right.

They are not responsible for anything. It was a violent videogame/movie, a bad upbringing, not enough money, or too much money that caused whatever bad situation they are in. They shouldn't be expected to pay for college, for their kid's food, for their own healthcare, for their housing, for their credit card debt. It wasn't their fault!
