Use of "offensive" language on the forum

[Multibocks]

My thoughts on the topic are this. Would you say these things in the real world to strangers? No... then why would you say them to strangers on the internet?

I swear all the time in the real world. If they don't like it then they can stop listening.

If it we lived in the medieval ages, I could legally challenge and duel you to the death for offending me if I took your swearing the wrong way. If we were Vikings I could fight and kill you, and so long as your offense was witnessed I could get off Scott free--my point is, the world is better for you and your swearing today, maybe you should do your part to make it better for others.

I curse and swear like a pregnant sailor, but if I am in public I swear not at all--because I am aware it could offend somebody. I try to care about strangers, I often can't care, but I try. I think just being thoughtful makes you a better person. Just like peanut butter makes a cookie better.

Your rights end where mine begin. I'm not telling you how to live your life or how to talk, I'm just asking you to take other people into consideration. I wouldn't think this is a tough concept but it seems like its struck a nerve with some people. You're probably the guy that answers a phone call in the middle of a movie.
