That said, nobody should be disgusted because somebody declares their opinion that the name choice is idiotic. There is no ofense intended.
Whether it's intended or not isn't really material. Whether it offended is.
I disagree. A right to not be offended would be in direct contradiction to a right to speak freely. Both cannot co-exist.

Sure, you *can* speak freely, but it doesn't mean that you always *should*. That's the point. Being considerate of others is a responsibility that comes with the right of being able to speak freely. Because other people matter, too. I am getting so sick of living in a world where nobody gives a damn about how they affect other people. -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits
