Subject: RE: BS: Don Imus replacment
I agree with beardedbruce, imagine that!

"Please, boycott Imus: write letters to the network not to let him on. THAT is fine- But to call for government regulation of speech is not justified."

I also agree with mg when she says that girls that hang with guys who talk that way are rewarding abusive behaviour. That has to stop. Peer pressure is the only way to make this type of language socially unaceptable to teens. Talk to the kids. Make them realize that abusive language leads to abusive behaviour.

pdq, you said, "...you seem to be able to misinterpret people's statements as well as dianavan does." Could you be a little more specific or do you go to bed at night with a hate on.
