“The foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing is a vice so mean and low that every person of sense and character detests and despises it.” George Washington
Inept - FYI George Washington is not that place you go see bands play, its a person and he was the first president of the United States among other things. |

F*%$'N - Now how tough was that to use symbols instead of the actual word? Last edited by Onad on Wed Jul 12, 06 4:31 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I dont believe in censorship of any kind. But there is no reason not to use good manners.

There goes my $peso:
For sure if some parents where reading all the profanity, swearing, bad language, etc. on some postings Im sure many Kiters (tennagers) would be left a the beach with no kites due to the lack of education that they show.
Just my thought and no offense

for me if you use F*** or the actual word, do you think a 10 year old will not know what you are talking about? If they know what you are saying then what would the point be. Like a wet t-shirt contest..you still know what they look like even if they still have a shirt on right? |

Well said PKH - I never meant to request "censoring" just wanted to throw it out there for the crowd and knew the "c" word would grab attention. This is Oregon after all. |

Seems like every song I grab to put over my kite video footage has a sprinkling of profanity however.

I think all of us should just keep in mind that kids do read this forum (since it is so great!) Let's just watch ourselves |
