No, I have no issue with anyone "defocating" in public.
Someone taking a dump in public, though - yeah, that's offensive.

and similar sentiments. I haven't lived in American for years myself, but hearing (and reading) that shit still makes me want to punch something. What on earth has made these people think they have the right to tell other Americans that they need to get out of their own damn country? Grrrr...

gunmen settlers (as in the Gaza strip) surviving Baathists contractors (means mercenary killers) In fact maybe we should just throw out the whole English vocabulary post 1900 and redo everything that's come up afterwards since the militarists and politicians of both parties have distorted the language so much. And meaning of previously existing words also. Pro-life for instance.

To paraphrase my favorite philosopher, Chris Rock:

I also hate:
*preborn. A term applied to the fetus, as though the mother had thoughtfully arranged it to be born in advance or something.
*liberation, liberated, or liberator, applied to any Bush foreign policy.
*compassionate conservative
*spreading freedom and democracy, when applied to any Bush foreign policy.
*obstructionist

Oh yeah, and a couple of new ones:
"Freedom" and/or "democracy," but only when used by Shrub. I can't stand to hear him use those words because they have absolutely NO meaning coming from him.
