City in Virginia cracking down on swearing

[*bfine32*]

Can't say I'm surprised. This group has given their opinion on Potty mouths before.

You are never too young to start cussing.

If you don't use them then that means you have a more limited vocabulary. 

The greatest authors use swear words.  Funny that people claim they are smart by not using them

So all it takes are a few f-bombs to convince you someone is the next JD Salinger, or something?

I guess I just choose to conduct myself in a more respectful way.    

I am pretty happy that it surprises people when they hear me swear.

You're certainly no savage.

The reason your not supposed to swear is because you sound like an uneducated moron when you use that language.   Yeah the words mean what they mean.... But it's a low class, uneducated, style of speaking.  

We shouldn't be limiting it as government. But its ok for a business to limit.

You're consistently using "your" incorrectly which is indicative of your level of intelligence and education.  Funny you should comment on other's intelligence or command of the English language.

The bolded portion is another of your ridiculous stereotypes. I'll add it to the growing list.

You know why you haven't seen that..... Because I have proper manners.

Declaring everyone in Central America, South America, and Africa are savages is ignorant. Supporting government prohibition of same sex marriages based upon your religion is discriminatory. Claiming blacks as a whole are less tolerant of others based upon sexual orientation is racist.

Good manners are worthless without good values.

Now in the times I've actually been in danger and swore in reaction without thinking (a car recently ran a red light while I was crossing a busy road and almost tagged me) my unconscious go-to statement was revealed to be "Jesus f***ing Christ!" despite the fact that I don't normally swear nor do I believe Jesus was a divine being.  Another time I dropped the f-bomb (and I do so when I'm around my friends and it fits the situation, honestly) without thinking involves people aggressively encroaching upon me wherein I consistently and without thinking yell "Get your f***-ing hands off me."  SO, I use it, but when I have the foresight to choose what I say, I tend not to.

I don't intentionally cuss in front of my family or at my current job like I did when I was in the Ranger Regiment. There is a time and a place. Someone asked why do you swear and I answered the question. That does not mean every other word out of my mouth is a curse word.  

People who can't use your or you're in a sentence correctly have no business criticizing the language skills of others.

Why are you continually trying to shove all threads into this one.... The only thing you have not mentioned is whether Santa claus is real.

Go and live somewhere there is no rule of law.

Who wrote any conversation?

It's really respectful calling every individual from two continents savages. Nelson Mandela = savage. Your respectfulness is exceeded only by your intellect.

I thought you didn't use the crutch of swearing?

Which countries have no laws?

If you can't then you should do some crosswords and work on that vocabulary..... That or your just lazy in your speech.   It's probably the latter since your an educated man.

"you're" x infinity

Is that last paragraph a personal attack?  Couldn't be because you don't do that.

You mean the ones who don't enforce laws, take bribes, allow gangs, cartels to run over normal citizens..... Yeah the ones I mentioned.

Jesus grew up in the Middle East. According to your reasoning he is a savage.

Really?  You insinuated Fred is lazy or stupid.

I was unaware "your" language skills are beyond reproach while you comment on other's language skills?

It is admitting that "I have nothing for this post, so I am going to bring up other stuff".
