There's no Bosnian spastic thread?

[Ted Hughes]

If you cut out everything that might offend somebody somewhere, you are not left with very much. There is no option but to more or less outlaw certain language, as there are too many people around in the world who would deliberately use it to cause pain if they could get away with it, but a few un pc words used here and there should not be a problem for anyone, unless they are deliberately used in a genuine hate crime rather than tongue in cheek or banter.

Nobody on here sanctions that kind of behaviour & nobody who genuinely did that would last very long.

People who are deeply offended by the occasional 'tasteless' word should not really be conversing with the likes of us on here I think. I don't know why they would unless they just go around the net being Mary Shitehouse.

Perhaps Disney can do a football forum.

I'd like to think we also started the use of the word Fucktard.

I'm sure that's not PC either.

Well I wouldn't want someone calling the cops on me alone, wonder if the GMP have a squad car in my area.

Ok maybe I went a bit heavy with hate crime and police. I will accept that criticism. I also accept that there may be a forum history to the thread title which I was not aware of. Some valid points have been made on here and some overreactions as well.

The point I made politely at the start and I will reiterate, this is an offensive term and better it is not used.

My original and reasonable request to change the title was met with pure insult. I still think moderators should change the language and ban this as it is in society generally. We all know spastic is an insult term, I certainly know that. Other non-offensive words can convey the meaning just as effectively.

I have no doubt the poster was directing the title at previous posts but repeating an offensive term which belittles those with disability, really is that necessary or required?

You really don't know when to give up do you.

Pure insult? My original post to you was outlining, politely and reasonably (whether you agree with it or not) why I wasn't changing the thread title,

This is the only bit directed towards you

However, if you're so easily offended that you feel the strong need to post for the first time since November 2012 to complain about another post, despite all the wonderful things at city you could have commented on in the 2 years since your last post, perhaps you have your priorities somewhat wrong for being a member of a manchester city forum

Pure insult? If that, in your mind consists of 'pure insult', then the rest of your hysterical posts start to make sense.

Fucking drama queen

Best thing about this thread is realizing why Sparty is a shit driver.

I only show respect to those who have self respect, sadly you fail that test. Your abusive language as a resort says all that is needed. Do you really feel I will be impressed by the use of a swear word. You probably do!

[citoeast]

To all those who defend the using of this term of abuse and who abuse me. Take a long hard look at yourselves and re-evaluate your behaviour.

Abuse away, bully away I will stand up to your abuse and reiterate again and again that this term is abusive and should not be used. It ironically demeans those who use it and those who defend its use. The more you abuse the more obvious it becomes you have no real arguments to make.

It is not political correctness, it is standing up to a language used to separate disabled people from other members of society.

Sorry if this hinders your freedom to insult and abuse at will.

Tiger Woods discovered this when he called himself a spaz on live UK radio/television after playing badly at the Masters. To an American ear, that's a word for a klutz. To a British ear, it's one of the most taboo insults, on a par with retard as one of the worst playground taunts.

...but that's it though isn't it? It's a playground insult. If you're really that bothered about that you must get upset a hell of a lot. It's totally juvenile, and therefore you really can't take it seriously can you? Surely?

Just one of many professionally offended fucktards that infest modern society - PC-ism is only good in theory if those practising it have the brain cells to take context into account and unfortunately most dont.

Context clues avoid the most stubborn it seems.

I'm a fairly liberal and open minded gentleman but I'm also working class enough in my roots to suss out a complete bullshit artist or fucktard at the drop of a hat.

Boooo-riiiing.
