It sounds to me like there are alot of haters out there!She made a mistake a she did'nt kill anyone!

"If you take offense to what Jane Fonda or President Bush or anyone else says that's fine, and that is your RIGHT. But don't blame them for excersing their rights."

This doesn't make any sense. If people have the "right" to be offended, then don't blame these people for excersing them, either.

What do you expect from Hanoi Jane, that Commie C--T?
Sorry, that was "inadvertent" from this Vietnam Navy vet!

1054, 1052 Lovely tangent. Hardy hark hark. ; ) BTW Or is normally exclusive, but it can be inclusive. It's called an inclusive or. Meaning if either or both are ture. One or the other or both. Anyway. Do you understand that you threw a question out there. The #question# implies that either I or others feel a certain way. Going with the traditional sense of or....You obviously don't know who feels that way. That's why you asked the question. So I replied to you that I don't feel as you'd have imply. I only replied by telling you that I'm saying the same thing you are saying. If YOU took the time to consider what I originally said you'd see that I'm obviously not letting others sway me to believe a word is offensive. Nowhere could you imply that form my original post.

"11:45 AM That's because, more so than the word v a g i n a, cnt CAN BE used as a derogatory word for a female. Look it up in the urban dictionary. You will find that cnt CAN have several meanings, POSITIVE and NEGATIVE. Therefore it is POSSIBLE that SOME people will find it offensive and disgusting."

8:16/8:20, I really do have to assume at this point that you are simply a troll looking for attention as you do not appear to be unintelligent or not have a grasp on the English language. You have ignored basic language to take offensive to a non-offensive post and then repeatedly done exactly what you accuse others of doing, i.e. taking offense to a response online and reading into bias when there is none. "Or" is not inclusive. "And" is. Therefore the original post was not inclusive in regards to asking for an explanation of the offense taken. I'm not an English whiz by any means, but I know this much.

Of course people will respond. There is no issue there. You however for some reason chose to respond not to the topic on which our posts seem to share various viewpoints, but rather your perceived slight which ignores basic language rules.

"1:34 & 2:34, so you or others would find a word offensive because other people tell you or them so?"

You OR others. Not you AND others. Not just YOU. And not once, but twice is "or" used in reference to "other" and "them". You OR other/them. You or the person next to you. You or your family. You or her. You or the dog. Paper or plastic. Salad or soup. Debit or credit. Girl or boy. Dog or cat. Pepsi or Coke. Decaf or regular.

"Dictionary: or1 (ôr; ər when unstressed)

conj.

Used to indicate an alternative, usually only before the last term of a series: hot or cold; this, that, or the other.
Used to indicate the second of two alternatives, the first being preceded by either or whether: Your answer is either ingenious or wrong. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Archaic. Used to indicate the first of two alternatives, with the force of either or whether.
Used to indicate a synonymous or equivalent expression: acrophobia, or fear of great heights.
Used to indicate uncertainty or indefiniteness: two or three."

The fact that she "didn't even think about it" shows what a no class person she is. That word is not in my vocabulary. I think it's disgusting. If anyone uses it around me, I address it. Saying cr*p or sh*t is one thing, but that word is just vulgar. She is vulgar.

See you there

My bad my reply was to 8:06

6:21, "you OR others" not you AND others. That is not inclusive. You have taken offense when there was none there by ignoring basic grammar.

5:27, you seem defensive and/or argumentative. And without reason as I never specified who would or could find the word offensive, hence the "you or others" as I was addressing multiple people who had offered different posts, one of whom had specifically said they thought lower of women who used the word. It also seems rather odd as we could possibly agree on the topic at hand based upon the posts written. As for my "tangent" it certainly is related to the topic and in fact it was that topic that dictated what I wrote, not two posters who were addressed in one line in a separate paragraph from the rest of my comment.

Jane Fonda did a little more than just oppose a war. She posed for pictures on air defense artillery equipment that was used to gun down American planes. The North Vietnamese regime distributed that picture as propaganda to support their regime. She also made statements on air that struck at the morale of our POWs held by the Vietcong and further bolstered the cause of the Communists. She even admitted once that she goes by her emotions and lets others do her thinking for her. She did not apologize for her actions until recently, when it was just too late, and it was a half-hearted apology at that.

She is just a bad person.

Who said they prefer the word "pu$$y??" It's all vulgar and inappropriate language for the Today Show. That's the point: You can say whatever word you like in the APPROPRIATE setting.

I think it could be offensive because of the implications of the word. If a man says that word, he is reducing a woman to that part of her body that he would use and discard. He's not talking about that part of a woman's body that is used for making love. The word has a totally base connotation that just reeks of sexual dominance--even rape. The fact that these women think it's okay to throw that word around does not elevate the word; it lowers my opinion of them.

Her flabby, scabby, dried out geriatric cu nthole is what is offensive. Keep your legs shut, Jane Fonda W HO RE!

That vile, senile Commie C U N T deserves to have her dried out shrivelled uterus ripped from her with a Ginsu. Filthy, traitor-W H O R E!

I give ger a break, ony because she's 70, probably senile, and most likely aching for attention. We teach our children to think before they speak, but she's old and probably just forgot.
