Speaking plainly can be accomplished without potty language. Once those words are used, your points are lost to those who take offense.

If you'd like, I'll Freepmail your removed post so you can reword it.

RM, here is a link to some definitions of the word to which you took exception:

"A stupid, mean or contemptible person" is, I think, an accurate description of a jihadi.

I do take your point, but wish to point out that delicacy of language is often a necessary casualty of war. Scatologically accurate characterization of an enemy is an important aspect of motivating good people to fight that enemy. Partly because the New York Times-types are too multiculturally brainwashed to understand this, we're losing a war that we should be winning.

Best regards...
