The word I've always found most offensive?



"censorship"



As for the smells-just-like-something-I've-stepped-in legislation mentioned above, seems under the terms stated the word "niggardly" would be banned as well...while seldom used anymore because it sounds ugly, it's a perfectly acceptable word that has nothing to do with color or race (altho some of us of Scottish descent might not care to be described as such)...

Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, & beat you with experience.

it’s just plain insane that they want to ban words. words! words are nothing but groups of letters that have a definition. they have no power until you add context and connotation. we have laws in place against hate crimes, bigotry, and discrimination…that’s where the hate is…it’s not in a word, it’s in the heart.

and what if i wanna sing along with ice-t or tupac on my ipod while i’m walkin down the street. you gonna ban that, too? what if i only lip sync?

tigga, please! or can't i say that either?

wyndhy,

Yes'm, I must agree. I’m sure that this public servant has the best of intentions, but good intentions are rarely enough. Criminalizing racist language would obviously limit freedom of speech, one of the basic freedoms on which other liberties depend. In and of itself, that is not sufficient objection. People can reasonably argue, and history has shown that there are limits to freedom of expression. The question is where you draw those limits. In the liberal tradition, they have been put at the point where speech becomes a threat to others, the poster child for which is shouting of “Fire” in a crowded theatre (at least if it is false).

I also wonder if this proposed law will have unintended consequences, such as giving extremists an example of “government run amok”?

and it's not so much the free speech issue for me, it's the unbelievable stupidity of it, the total waste of resources. if we ban the word hate will people stop hating? no. if we invest some resources in educating people about the ill effects of hate, chances are that would do worlds more good in the long run. i also get a chuckle out of the sheer namby-pamby pussyfication they showed in not actually spelling out the word nigger in the legislation. in 500 years, (after the collapse of our electronic communications network ) when our descendants are digging throuhg old documents and come across this bit of brilliance, i wonder if anyone will even know wtf they were talking about.
