Most folks thought the world was flat too. You're a solid debater. (dang, where's my green crayon)

People can take exception and argue if it's ok for black people to say the n word. Non-blacks should just not say it, and probably keep their mouth shut when it comes to whether or not black people should say it.

people can take excpetion to when women call women the b-word. Men should not say it and probably keep their mouths shut when it comes to whether or not women should say it.

Why "bigoted?" How Am I being obstinate or intolerant with prejudice there? Are you having a seizure?

The b-work (like the n-word or the k-word) says little about the recipient, but a lot about the name caller and his general attitude.

Yeah... what I wrote is what I expect from MOST people. Brewers.... well not expecting much.

Someone should make a list of words that are not allowed to be used and by whom.

What I find amazing is that the "F-word" is totally acceptable pretty much at all times by anyone but how many other words are not. Always find that interesting.

You don't need a list... It's my opinion (I repeat my opinion, for those prone to seizures), If it's a slur intended to demean a group of people it should generally only be said by that group. Do you generally go around using racial slurs?

In related news.... I can tell a mean Polack joke.

The F-word doesn't hurt anyone... It just means, crudely, what I would rather be doing all the time.

Te F-word hurts everyone. It is so common now that it makes our society look cheap, unsophisticated and ignorant as if it were run by street thugs…which seems to be where we are going. Decent people do not speak like this in general conversation.

Considering there are parents in Portland putting signs with it on into their children's hands and having them march in protests in front of the federal building, I'm not quite sure it's true that it doesn't hurt anyone.

I don't think using cuss words is a mark of whether one is decent or not. It depends on the setting. Your best political con men don't use cuss words, but they aren't decent people. I am against using cuss or crude slang words as name-calling like the recent incident with AOC and when people use it constantly. But hit your thumb, shocking events or frustration, I can overlook it.

Just that one is closer to the truth than the other.

There was a video shown recently of 6-7 year old kids walking with signs that said "Eff the Police" a few had T-shirts saying the same thing. Proud moms were standing nearby. In my opinion, these kids are done at an early age. They are being taught that anything goes. No sense of dignity. Wht will they grow up to be.

Video of the guy that put a cop in a headlock…gut taking the video kept talking and couldn't go more that a half dozen words or so without the Eff word, MFer, P word etc. What hope does that guy have of getting a decent job in a civilized society. He literally cannot speak to anyone without offending.

At a rally in Minneapolis…the wimp mayor would't commit to defunding the police so the woman running the rally told him to get the eff off the stage. Talks to the mayor like this.

All these "peace protests"…signs and chants using the eff word by men and women alike.

Many posters here cannot post without the eff word.

You can say it is just a word all you want but when people are this vulgar, it is hard to take them seriously. They just come across as ignorant trash.

Sorry.

The good news is that if they are taught that about police, then it's very likely they won't be a policeman who is out there killing unarmed black people. So that's a positive of it at least.

It's not the word hurting anyone.
