Everyone should censor their speech depending on who they talk to. Unless your an antisocial retard that only talks to mom. Obviously its fine to swear for a friend, less so to colleagues, and don't swear to family. Easy.

Only leftist anti-social autists like you need to make this argument. Most people have been properly socialized. I'm sorry your parents did such a poor job.
