So, you'd rather have a board full of suicide jokes and gay slander?

i'm kind of agreeing with meg on this one. some of this stuff really doesnt seem that bad at all.

also i cant think of a time anyone made fun of gay people. the thing with jeff was a stab at him and only him saying that he was easy. The fact that we cant use the word "faggot" (in context that doesnt make fun of gay people) seems more against gays than letting us use the word. It's like isolating gays by not letting us talk about them. Have you never heard a homesexual say something along the lines of "I'm a fag" before? I have.

That's like saying it's okay to call people "niggers".

depends on the context. i personally wouldnt want to call anyone a nigger, but it has a double meaning now. It's not always negative.

how is this any less offensive than the faggot thing? that can easily be viewed as degrading to woman, just as saying faggot can be viewed as degrading to gays.

Mind you i dont find either case on this board to have been very bad.
