DSTCHAOS,
I think you have the right approach here.
In your post you speak about your personal tolerance for the use of the word when it is said within earshot, but say nothing about legislating people's right to say it aloud.
Making a rule to ban the word- or any word- is not only stupid but a violation of free speech.
The power the word carries is born out in the reaction it can inspire in certain circumstances, and those who utter it must face the freedom of expression and feeling of those who hear it and react in turn.
