Kaiser Anandja,
As I cannot post in the trial topic, I will make my opinion known here in this one. I find that censoring of any kind to be as offensive as the word that was said. Children know every english cuss word by the time they graduate middle school, and since we have no children under that age limit who surf the board, I find that censoring someone to be a bit heavy-handed, and with all due respect, I find it ridiculous that this is your big move. We're adults here, not children who need to have their mouths washed out with soap for saying a naughty. If your reasoning is that it is offensive; we say offensive things to each other all the time. If you censor a cuss word, then you must censor every other thing that offends someone else. It also sets a dangerous precedent, in my opinion. Anything defiant can be described as a malicious act when you get down to it. I understand that you are angry that he defied your authority, but it's just a word. It only has as much power over you as you let it. I mean no offense to you in what I say, but merely wish to have this trial called off. Let's save court trials for serious crimes, not matters of censorship, your niftiness.
