I thought I would waste my time with a rhetorical question.

How come American soldiers can be called "terrorists", "murderers", "trained killers", "human wreckage", and a buttload of other shit; but I can't call Ann Coulter a "****", and calling Chris Christie "fat" is the cause of great angst?

If veterans aren't welcome here, just ****ing say so, but the selective outrage over what is, and is not accpetable speech, makes me want to puke.

1. I think that the comments you refer to about American soldiers would depend on context.

But if it makes you feel any better, if someone were to call a female soldier the c-word, or if they called a black solder the n-word, that would always be removed, regardless of context.

Selective outrage is what DU is all about, Bravo. Guess what? What is an outrage today is status quo tomorrow.
