There are quite a few things you can't say in public. Well, I guess you could, but they wouldn't be looked upon kindly. Included among these verbal taboos are: swearing, any kind of derogatory speech that could target any group of people, insults and I'm sure there are others I can't think of right off the bat at this moment. The rule of thumb is that if someone could be reasonably offended* by it, it's best not to say it in public.
*I say "reasonably offended" because, let's face it, some people are offended by the most innocent of statements. I'm not kidding; I once got yelled at in public by an ex-friend because I stated a preference for strawberry ice cream.

What? If I can't say it in public, do you think I will say it HERE? My advice, as always, is the old adage, "Don't do (or say) anything that you wouldn't want to see published on the front page of the New York Times the next day!"
Have a polite day.

Anything that is offensive or in poor taste, anything that incites a riot and these days anything in a public place that could be viewed as a terrorist plot. Frankly none of this is news. Bad attitudes, insensitive speech, and general lack of respect for those around you have always been in poor taste.

Swearing in public is against the law. Any threats against someone.

Nothing.....I just say whatever I want all the time. That doesn't mean I am rude to people though. If I don't want them to hear it I just say it quietly to my husband.

Well it depends on if you want people to judge you or not... if you want to go to jail or not... offend people or not... excite people or not... Let's see if you want people to judge you ... you can say "I have genital herpes"... umm if you want o go to jail... yell "Bomb" or "F--K u Pig!" to a police officer... if you want to offend people say... "Jesus Hates you!" .. I don't know this can go far... and getting slapped in the face..lol... and if you want to excite people.. well just say "I want to lick... "and fillin' any body part.
