Awful, disgusting, repulsive.


Why would anyone, EVER, attempt to ban speech? Because a small group of people find it offensive? Thats why we have a first amendment anyways.


Every council member who voted for this should consider resignation.

Overreaction, much?

Did none of the people freaking out about this read that it's not a ban, and that people are just being encouraged to not use those words?
