A word about profanity: Fuck. Thank you.
You see this forum, (like JFKresearch Assassination Forum), is a serious research forum. It is not sensitive to "words" --just to content. So every once in a while tempers flare--even in the written word. It is neither here nor there. There was no censorship of profanity on Rich's site either. It was the right decision. We are adults. However, excessive profanity becomes disruptive at some stage and should not be allowed, but not because it is profane, but because it is disruptive after a point. I don't think early intervention is appropriate. I think the administrators of this forum do a fine job of balancing freedom of speech with prevention of disruptive behavior.
