72. language defamatory of race, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, religion... all the same
Edited on Fri Oct-24-08 12:48 PM by crankychatter
it sucks

it's funny, there's another thread RE morning joe, knucklehead saying "bitch slapped..." looking for outrage here... all these folks that have been using this kind of language here... now defending scarborough in a way...

"it depends on context."

context = are we using it on republicans or are THEY using it on US

pot, meet kettle

I wasn't around then and I won't be around later regarding DU rules

so, I abstain

best of luck with that

edited to add: If all the White males here that have ever had "road rage," and used a racial epithet out loud in their car, when someone cut them off, admitted that they used the word "bitch," when the offending party was a woman... they'd get it. It's all the same... it's shaming, abusive, cruel and self indulgent.
