Submit ReviewViral videos show Americans behaving badly on planes, in restaurants, and in school board meetings - screaming, ranting, even punching. Are we becoming more uncivil?
Scenes of Americans screaming at school officials, threatening election workers, arguing with restaurant workers and attacking flight attendants are all over social media. But are these viral videos of people acting badly on planes, in restaurants and at school board meetings evidence that our society is getting ruder, meaner and angrier?
