ok, I'm all for free speech, and I have mostly supported d33 zY's right to voice his views, but this is a bit too much.
Please, try to refrain from this type of stuff. It brings down the community. You are a smart guy, and I'm sure you can understand. I'm also sure that you can find more creative ways to insult people.
thanks

yeah, you're right. I suppose it's a harsh word. I'm just glad that GWB is willing to bring the fight to these extremists and take out the world's trash.
EDIT: damn, that does sound like Hitler, doesn't it? Well... to clarify, as racist as I may come off as, I'm not for killing all the muslims or all the light brown people. Just the people who declare war on America and our allies, and most of which just happen to be middle east ragheads.

There's something to be said for letting your logic stand up for itself instead of feeling the need to back it up with ethnic and/or religious slurs.

First of all, on behalf of myself, and possibly those on the board who are also from a middle east rag head background, [censored] YOU, YOU ILL MANNERED REDNECK WHITE TRASH PIECE OF [censored]!
Now that I've got that out of my system, I have a serious question. Why haven't you enlisted yet Paul? You obviously seem very passionate about the cause, and if you haven't heard the military is having quite the problem with shortage of troops. Why not sign on if you believe so strongly in the need to defend the American people? Or is it just easier for you to sit back in your nice warm house while people like my not-technically-an-american yet boyfriend go over there and do the dirty work while you talk [censored] via the internet.?

Why has this adolescent jerk not been banned, again? In the span of about an hour, we've gotten raghead, sandnigger, skank, faggot, and gook, most without provocation of any nature.

for what? using some of the same degrading language as you just did?
or is it worse for him, because the word that you used has been desensitized in meaning, where the language he uses still hits home for some people?
edit : was written before 'adolescent jerk' was used to replace 'motherfucker'

You sure are quick to censor people's thoughts!
Look, I love you all, ragheads, skanks and fags alike. Sometimes it's just fun to pick a fight. Every community needs an as shole to stir the shi t!

Every community needs an [censored] to stir the [censored]! I think a majority of the people here on this BBS would disagree with that statement.
It's one thing to have an intelligent discussion about a politically-charged topic, and another thing to have it devolve into name-calling.

at least you confess to being hypocritical If I read correctly, I think he was admitting to using terms that have been desensitized by society and are therefore less offensive in nature. Admitting to being less offensive than [censored] cannot be considered hypocritical. In fact it illustrates the whole point of choosing language in a respectful way and that some words are much more insulting than others.

I disagree. For instance, I do not believe that he has intercourse with his mother, the denotation of MF. It's just an extreme form of ``jerk''. And I did change it because I realized I was being too extreme. However, I didn't call him a redneck or trailer trash, both of which probably come closer to being accurate, because that's hitting below the belt and being intentionally offensive, as opposed to expressing outrage.
It's the intentional offense that bothers me. If I offend you with my foul mouth, I apologize. None of the words I use really mean anything to me any more. (I actually got thrown in jail once for being potty-mouthed to a police officer. And I wasn't drunk at the time, either.)

What does it feel like to be "offended"? I honestly don't know what's it like. Please, someone try to offend me. I would like a taste of my own medicine.

Actually I never read the MF reference, so I was at a tiny disadvantage. But the point I was trying to make was that based solely on the fact of him admitting to your charge of or is it worse for him, because the word that you used has been desensitized in meaning, where the language he uses still hits home for some people? he wasn't being hypocritical.
And while MF is pretty offensive, it's still not nearly as personal as some of the other terms being used in this thread. On top of that, I have never seen Bitt use offensive language toward anyone unless he'd been first provoked. Not saying that makes it right, but he does show a lot of effort toward acting courteously toward people of differencing viewpoints, even at the point where he might find that person's viewpoint offensive.
And for the record, I have 0 desire for someone to charge around using filthy language and being blatantly offensive for no other reason than to upset people. Those are people I try to avoid in almost any setting.
