Who determines what are "offensive words"?

Is "God Damned" offensive?

Is "Nazi" or Communist" offensive.

Is calling someone "liberal" or "conservative" offensive.

Who determines all this?

Bang your thumb with a hammer and say "Oh that F'in hurt" gets you a ticket.

Why is one term used to describe sex a capital sin but 10 other words to describe the same act are OK?


This law and others like it are just one more nail in the coffin of Freedom.

The real nail in the coffin of freedom is in this day and age of ability to gather information at the rate we can people pissing and moaning AFTER THE FACT when laws are passed.

This vote wasn't a secret, it was on the agenda.

The only people to blame, in the case of being against this law, are the people of the town for being lazy.
