I agree with you. I have competed in athletics from age 9 until I graduated college. I have always been around that kind of language but I never liked it.

Neither of my parents ever used any kind of profanity, so I guess that was the way I was raised. Now I knew some pretty good people who cussed like a sailor so I just ignored it but like I said, I never liked it and still don’t.

Even in the Artillery I would not let the guys cuss in front of my wife when they visited my home, I read so much here at freerepublic that the cussing here has become the worst exposure to the language that I get in my life, it affects us all and leads everyone to unconsciously adopting the language.

This is a great victory for the left in America, they have pushed this agenda for decades.
