I have views on this subject. On a serious note, it's sad when the younger people lack tolerance toward the older generation. The reality of growing old hasn't yet caught up with the younger ones who think that it will never happen to them but; it does and that's when they greatly regret having been disrespectful toward their elders. We have a lot to learn from the lines of experience we see in the faces of the elderly and we are reminded that "a fool refuses wise counsel"

Know what, I've thought about this myself. The fact is that if you read the Constitution, you'll see that we all have the right to free speech. It would be unlawful to arrest people because they're rude. No, I don't think it should. When people are rude or negative, the people around them decide to hang out or not with them. A mature person can or can learn to ignore the losers. They're no better than the rest of us nuts anyway. lol Just be the best person you can and help people in need of assistance. The insane defence wouldn't work here, but it's a funny thought.

I don't think that they should be killed or arrested....I do wish that there was a way to stop it, because I do think that it sometimes leads to violence. Especially if they become an everyday thing. They say that some of the kids that have shot up schools and stuff were picked on and insulted by other students and therefore sought revenge on them by shooting up the school. I dont really know what you could do to stop it though. Maybe some new form of punishment if the insults were really bad and happened all the time.

I know what you mean. Rude people are basically rude because they believe they have superior rights to another person's rights. I know how much it makes me want to have a cousin Vinny I could call to have go pay a visit to the rude person and maybe leave a dead animal in their bed. Unfortunately all that would make me end up feeling like I was as bad as the rude person.
I have just had to learn to disassociate myself from a person's actions and look at it with the observation of a scientist doing a study on rude people. Just note their behavior and wonder at it...don't become involved emotionally.

No the rpoblem is we have enough real criminals to worry about in our society before tying up our prisons with this stupidity. Furthermore who's to say what constitutes rude or insulting? A guy I went to school with got in big trouble for slapping girls on the backside but it turns out he is from Brazil and this is quite a common greeting there.
We Americans are gonna have to learn we aren't alone out there and we better grow some thick skin.

Oh, my God! You want to kill or arrest people for being rude! Are you saying that we should go back to the days of the wild west when that was the way of life? May I ask who is going to judge who was rude and why? Do you realize that elderly people are more rude and hurtful than today's youth, just because they think they have been there and done that!!!

The more we restrict and punish people's behaviors, the less and less free our society becomes. Nazi's and Communists LOVE to restrict what people say, read, and do. So my answer to your question is a resounding "NO!" Insults are not nice, but aren't so bad as to surrender freedom of speech.
So what do you want, Fascism with forced obedience or Freedom with the occasional a-hole?
