So, it made you upset when someone (not me, AFAIK) did it to you, so you'll give it right back. Rather than reaching the logical conclusion that, if it was upsetting and wrong when it was done to me, then it must be wrong.

We're talking about language engaged in by adults on a mostly political message board that tweens aren't really going to be attracted to.

If you want to play make-believe like everybody engaged in political discussions has to use the same language they use in front of kids, or in church, that's your prerogative. In my experience, it never happens that way, and adults quite freely use expletives, especially when discussing local political matters.

This isn't Dora the Explorer we're talking about here in front of the kids.

Your reading too deep into this. I thought the rules were followed thats how the wny political system works. Right? WHen I question items like this in the past I was told it's all legal...

I know for a fact humans less than 18 years of age read speakup. Kids in highschool send me email asking questions about some of the hobby stuff I talk about.

Do you live in some fantastic wonderland where teenagers (or tweens, for that matter) don't curse like sailors?

Kids that have parents that teach their kids respect for the people around them yes.
