Time and place rule applies, so if you're on school grounds you can't cuss. Just like you can't yell "Fire!" in a filled movie theater. Or anything.

yeah i understand but i'd rather use cuss words then do something that might harm something regarding a topic at school...i understand saying fire or something else in school but really like the word f.uck, i use it mostly like an adjective and the teachers go crazy and call security..i think they overdo it on that...
Yeah they do overdue it but not much you can do about it, their rules so... whatever.

so shouldn't the first amendment allow me to explain myself with a word associated with extreme anger?

but then if this was allowed then so many other things would have to be allowed...

Why the hell are you calling them cuss words? That's like saying Oh my gosh, fudge or whatever instead of the "normal" words. Not to mention incredibly annoying.

Anyways obviously not, these laws have been made and should have been challenged with your constitution. Apparently people didn't see a conflict and made the laws.

Now personally I am very much against limiting the use of words like these or speech in general, with the possible exception of insulting or inciting others to criminal behavior, so I think you should just be allowed to do whatever the hell you want. But obviously your law makers do not agree.

Not sure if they are but they should be!JM

How do you use f*** as an adjective? I'm interested.

Well, they are excluded from the 1st Amendment in the sense that they aren't explicitly mentioned.

At least we could call them "profanity" which adds a certain air. Cuss sounds a bit like something people "does while they is a fussin' an' a feudin'"

Well, that's ****ing. I wondered about f***.

In case you were not aware of this at school legally kids lose some of their rights.

Possibly something along the lines, though that is probably a noun.

what do you think? Using curse words does not violate the First Amendment, but there are times and places where using them is inappropriate. Much like slurs or hate speech. Not illegal, but certainly inappropriate.

I remember something about that in English class.

However, the way Creshosk used the word was an adjective; it defined "what kind". If I can remember correctly, if Creshosk had used a hyphen, it then becomes something like a compound word noun. What this means is that the so-called adjective does not make a complete noun (In the context in which it is being used) without the appended noun and the noun also does not make a complete noun without the appended adjective.

As it stands, thought, the way Creshosk used the word f**k, it was an adjective.

**** buddy is a complete unit, like straw man.

So you do not remember correctly. A hyphen isn't necessary to make a compound noun.

Anything that offends someone is excluded from the second amendment. Political correctness is now the law of the land.
