Wussies themselves are the obvious culprits. And the A-Team getting cancelled.

I remember when I was at a private school all the way up to 6th grade, we'd get detention for fighting. Then my parents moved to the sticks and I got suspended for a fight at a public school. I gave a big "wtf really?!" pussies.

Winnfield in the 90's gave u the option licks or suspension. Took the licks every time. Didn't hold a candle to the hole sale arse whooping would have got at the house.

That's a better answer. Remember, those guys wouldn't have jobs if it weren't for the people who consult them.
Not sure lawsuit-happy is a good example. That's more a cash grab than wussification. The "oh woe is me" is just a strategy.

I remember my daughter telling me I was the only parent to use the word "liability" in reference to friends being at our house. I am sure that has something to do with it when you have to worry about everyone trying to sue for everything.

The nuns at my school would hit us.
Also back then I truly think our coaches tried to kill us.

We had a nun as a principle when I was in kindergarten. Damn was she mean she used to just threaten me with that paddle and I'd straighten up.
Never forget, the summer before I started 8th grade we had summer workouts for football. At my high school, every football player worked together, 8th grade, JV, and varsity. After a few seasons of that, the 8th grade teams started to shrink because they hated working that hard. They actually told our coach to take out workouts down a notch. I was so pissed when they did that.

To PC, if you hurt some ones feeling, you lose your job, or suffer public ridicule and get sued. No one the right to an opinion anymore, and if you do your a racist, homophobic, or some other name people will call you if you disagree with them or there beliefs.
