RE: Abrahams cussing
Quote:I may sound like a broken record on this forum...but YET again I agree with Rob Wick. Somehow, I can't see anything wrong with that.  I don't necessarily have a problem with a group advising people as to what they might object to in a movie. If someone found cursing offensive, and they seriously didn't think there would be any in the film, having knowledge before would be, as far as I can see, harmless and it would allow them to make an informed choice. But I wonder if those who might object to the cursing would object as much if there were more violent battle scenes? My major beef is with Barton, but Mike has made my case here very well. Maybe I'm immune to being bothered by it. In the 14 years I worked in newspapers, the language I heard (and used) would sometimes make a sailor blush. I always said it was a sad state of affairs that people who made their living with words couldn't come up with any better than various four-letter ones.  Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
