[Boatanchors] Idiocy over usage of non abusive and non profanity

[Robert Bethman]

All,

It is worse than a "victim culture"!

Those that got offended need to become adults.  No profanity was used, and that language is just fine even for youngsters.

"Mom, Daddy is hammering nails!"

Is that offensive?  Not any time I can see!

Folks talk about mouse urine, feces, and the crap left in the nest made in a barn find.

Guess those being offended have never re-worked an old radio, or they have no idea how.

Regards,
Bob Bethman

We're becoming a victim culture.

Can we all try to be less offended?
Great group of folks here!
