Default The Knife

I don't have small children, but would think that parents wouldn't appreciate Cramer's use of "the knife" on his show. Children love to emulate adults and he is not setting a very good example.

So the kids are smart enough to watch Cramer, but foolish enough to hurt themselves. Sounds like an abdication of responsibility. MSNBC is a babysitter? Please, next you will tell me some lady wins millions of dollars because the coffee was too hot! oops. Besides, Cramer got more hurt from that model airplane a week or so back. Outlaw model airplanes?

Children don't watch because they are "smart enough". They watch for the noises and antics and because Cramer acts like a big kid.

Cramer's fault. I would take no responsibility for YOUR actions whatsoever. Maybe Hillary was right... It does "take a village to raise a child". Speaking of villages, you'rs called.

This is yet another case of "but what about the children?" I for one don't give a damn about the children. It's called social darwinism and let the weak, dumb, and infirm go the way of nature and their genes will be culled from the pool and we'll all be better for it.

I've long held the theory that this is the reason for societies ills. We provide for the most inept among us through subsidy or entitlement. The successful have to put in so much time and capital to educate themselves that by the time they reach productive status they are nearly infertile. Yet the most indigent in our society are the most prolific reproducers. Go figure.

Yep, it's that kinda crap that really chaps my ass.
My paw once told me if ya don't work, ya don't eat!
If we'd run this country a lil more like that all the lazy, "whatcha got for me now" and "the government owes me", people would get off their asses and have to go to work, and my taxes would be lower.

Maybe Cramer could do something constructive with the knife, like teach some of those kids you're so worried about how to skin a deer for food, or whittle a stick. Most of 'em can't do anything but twitch a joystick in front of an xbox and wet their pants cause they're glued to a tv monitor.
Dang girlie, you got my grits stirred up wit that one, worried about a buncha lil pansy assed rug rats.
What's wrong with kids today theyre hidin under mama's skirts and pampered like babies. Give me a freakin break !
