I was not attempting to specify "three" rules, I was only saying we should avoid some "hot button" words. These new times of P.C. have made certain terms unspeakable. Yes, this is a breach of the most pure line toward "freedom fo speech" , but to even be heard, the rules need be followed("bad" words must be avoided). One could also draw lines between these words and the current drive in the media to install hate crime laws. While I decry all crime, I must question the desire to pass anything more under which the "thought police" may act.
