If they are free to create euphemisms to mask their reality, we are free to invoke pejoratives to express our repugnance. Granted, the use of vulgar terms tends to shut down the discussion and is unnecessarily offensive, but it also shows we’re not afraid to offend. And the reality is that liberals will shut down the conversation regardless of the language used. We can’t allow them to dictate the lexicon.

Yes, but I think offending by using precise words is most effective. This is why I will sometimes call homosexual males “sodomists”. It gets to the core of what they actually are.
