    Damn mods are taking away my first amendment rights to swear on a private message board.

    CO-AR15 was one of two message boards that I post on that didn't have a language filter. I'm surprised it wasn't added a long time ago honestly.

    Considering how rare the use of the term for a male chicken is used as a cuss word around here I'd recommend they just remove it from the list (like minor cuss words like damn and hell).
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    It's gonna be like watching Breakfast Club on TBS...


    sh!t!!
    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Haha. NPH said that on How I Met Your Mother last night.

    But really, no cussing = oh well. I wasn't really bitching about it, I was just curious about the change more than anything else.

    Where's the fun in that? We're all adults here.

    PS - rants are going to be lame now.
    No, we are not all adults - this is a family-oriented site and always has been.

    Even if we were all adults, many of our members feel compelled to behave and speak like a 16yo gang-banger wannabe.

    I tried to warn folks here but while several members appreciated me providing the warning to the site others took it as a challenge to rachet the language up a notch.

    Site profanity filter solves the problem and no one has to wash their mouths out with soap.

    I like it personally. I am prone to typing out cuss words. People still get the point either way and the word doesn't have to be in text. no big deal IMO.
    It really only hurts the rants, but again, you get the point and most people and figure out what is being said.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    No one tells their 9 year-old to go browse a gun web forum. The ones that are old enough to have an interest in some of the threads are saying worse things to their friends already. Adding some astericks isn't going to accomplish anything that a minimal effort in parenting would.
