    Because they are insensitive idiots. Unfortunately just like any kind of discrimination there is always goingto be a few that make it hard for the masses.

    I love old people! They are so interesting to talk to because they have lived at whole other time than we have. I love history and they know a lot. Some people just need to sit down and talk to them and they’ll see a whole new side.

    If i disrespect an elderly citizen it would happen because they showed me no respect. It just depends on the person i guess.

    To many of our more youthful GWS users, if you’re over 30, you’re a wizened old relic.

    I love older people. Ask a few questions and you’ll find they have the most fascinating stories to tell.

    Because they are an easy target. People who are interested in directing their animosity toward others often need no better reason than that.
