I'm not too sure about those Christian Deer hunters though...Isn't there a song somewhere called "Killing for Jesus". Bambi's mother ran into a missionary...

Sorry, thread creep. Yet again I say it, there's all the difference in the world between censorship and self-restraint. But if I'm in a strange cafe or pub and the starts sounding ugly, I won't stay long. (And that tends to be ugly talk about blacks or women, but the way the language is used comes into it to. It's noyt so much particular words, it's how they are strung tgether.)

So if we don't want to drive away people whose company we'd enjoy, we need top go easy sometimes.
