"It’s just vulgar," said Jeanette Flaim, who is the chair of the Calvert County Democratic Central Committee. "Kids are going to school, and they’re going by it every day, and parents are driving their kids. We just don’t think kids should have to see that or parents should have to explain that."

Don't support human garbage candidates and you won't have to explain it to your kids.

I understand everyone’s point, but do those statements mean that we should contribute to the coarsening of our society? I would be very put out if I still had young kids and drove by this billboard,as I made great efforts to have my children not use that kind of language. These days every inarticulate mother*****r out there spouts this language constantly. Are the word used really more impactful that would have been “idiots,” “twits,” “morons,” etc,?

How vulgar is having ten year olds put condoms on bananas?

Hypocrites.

These people are socialist racist america haters attempting to destroy our foundation.

Its on a single billboard in one location.

I have no beef with it.

I would not support a national campaign of it.

No, it’s just gross. They could have gotten the message across in a clever, less offensive way. But I am glad that it is annoying people like the female quoted in the piece.

About 30 years ago I worked at a doctors’ office in Calvert Co.

Every once in while Steny Hoyer would walk in and would basically start campaign. He wasn’t well received EVER.

No, it IS public obscenity and indecency.

I see it as if one should not display things to children, that is the standard for public signs, etc.

I. Tired of that stupid obnoxious potty emoticon and foul hostile language.

If children shouldn’t see it, it shouldn’t be in public.

Different time, different standards of conduct.

Saying that is like the libs saying our Constitution is meaningless because it was written by white slave owners, and is therefor illegitimate.

I don’t want someone in my foxhole who cried over hearing “shit.”

I want go getters, throat slitters, and non bullshitters all day long when the day comes I’m trading bullets with dudes.

The same parents who tell kids it’s ok to cross dress are afraid they’ll be offended by the word ‘shit’?
....................................................
Any kid old enough to be in school who hasn’t heard that word needs to have his/her hearing checked right away! Use of scatological language is a favored activity among young children, especially girls!

I’m glad I saw the pic of the sign. I thought the missing word was something else, much more appropriate.

It’s the hypocrisy I’m pointing out and disagree with, not that foul language can’t be a contributing factor to depravity. Are they really OK with their children being exposed to homosexual indoctrination in their schools, but shocked and horrified by a four letter word for ‘poop’? Something smells amiss with that (pun intended).
