And was not ever scared by what other said his use of them should or should not be. I am not scared either. To some's chagrin. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

Go to youtube...you'll find him. OH, I do often enough. I find interviews and stuff at times that, even at this age, still surprise and delight me. Not just the dirty seven stuff.

Carlin made sure that he was in good form during his live shows before adult audiences but you never heard an F-bomb from him while he sat with Carson. Even Carlin knew there was a line and he didn't cross it. So you say you aren't scared to swear. What are you, eight years old? No adult is scared to swear, but they seem to understand where and when to do it. This isn't the place for it. I do not fight fascists because I think I can win.

Yes, I know that words are what separate some more civilized folks from others at times. So, save that argument. I use whatever words work at a particular moment in time.
