Not that I ever thought of it before, but I shall never think of The Rod of God in the same light again.

Like Timmy before me, I too have to tell you this article brings new definition to a great many, LOL, things; as does the entire web-site iffin' one cares to wander around it abit.

Thanks Timmy, I wasn't sure if it such profanity was acceptable here or not.
It's so important to be polite.
We Aussies love to sprinkle profanities into our conversations for effect, emphasis, and elucidation of the finer points of a discussion, in our attempts to be fuckin' eloquent. ;-D

No wuckers, mate, you just carry right on.
To be fair, context is king. A world like Nigger may be wholly appropriate in some contexts and wholly deplorable in others.

I have to confess to having some problems using the N word, it isn't something I would use except in the way you have; to describe the importance of its relationship to appropriate context. There are a small number of such words that I consider inappropriate for me to use, but then there are others which, as a gay man, I consider is my gay-cultural right to be able to use, to the exclusion of those who would transgress our very existence in their use of such words.
On the other-hand I am no lover of the asinine practices of the politically correct brigade.
Yes, context is important.

If we describe, for example the taunting to death of Billy Lucas, partly by calling this young man gay and partly by calling him a nigger, it is wholly appropriate to use the word without apology, the more so because he was not a nigger by any definition (his father was East Indian).
Thus the use illustrates the appalling ignorance and racist tendencies of those who bullied him.
In these circumstances the word 'gay' is also abusive and inappropriate. Billy Lucas was a boy, not a gay boy. He was a boy bullied until he chose the only way he could see to end the torture.

Exactly Timmy, those who transgressed Billy Lucas by assuming his ethnicity and sexuality and thereby taunted him, are in my opinion complicit in his decision to end it all.
One of the things that white folk don't generally do is "Self-deprecate" ourselves as a group. "You stupid bloody white trash," is not commonly said among white Anglo people, whereas other groups do participate in mimicking their oppressors amongst themselves, at each other with good intentioned humour, (again, amongst themselves.)
Part of the problem with the American 'free speech' is that sometimes people have to pay for it with their lives because it is directed with malice and contempt as a tool of deliberate, aggressive, confrontation.
Having said that however, I do believe that there is a strong case too keep the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution protected and intact.

All right, JJ...see what you started? But I am happy to see you posting, both on the forum and on the story shelf.

Cussing? I started a discussion on CUSSING?
Even if knowing lots and lots of cuss words will probably come in very handy, and not only that, it might soon be a form of civil disobedience. (FCC on Ws watch, FCC under someone even further.... right....
Ho-ly fucking SHIT!
Oh, hi Chris. And thanks.

Cuss all you want. But that image would scare me too. Personal best dream image was of me being in line waiting for my assigned naked boyfriend (not kidding) and he was a doll. But the guy next in line got a...well ugly dude and he began to cry. I just said something stupid I'm sure and was more upset that I woke up from my dream too soon.
