I'm offended by Krakens. And further more I'm offended by people who get offended.

Is it not a good thing to have kids consider that this martial art can be used for self defense against someone strung out on drugs?
As other guys pointed out there are "worse" name in 10P, a stronger case could be made for them perhaps, my parents simply explained that a lot of square ass people will be offend by certain words, so its not polite to use them in public.

Sounds like some of my Homophobic friends wishing those gays would just go back into the closet or about gay marriage because they don't want to explain to their kids about gays.
I'm a father of 3. As parents we are the #1 teachers of our children ( at least some of us are) and if we can't explain the realities of life to our children then we just suck! Its as simple as that....You can teach a child to hate. You can teach a child to love or you can teach a child how to understand.

We can't say that. How about we change crackhead to tweaker control and change 10th Planet to Easily Butthurt jiu jitsu. Maybe the lil ones will understand that better. Wait wait wait, no fuck that, how bout we keep 10th Planet as it is and stop being a bunch of pussies. I'm sooo sick and tired of all the whiney bullshit going on in this country and now it's trying to bleed over into 10th, I don't fuckin think so!
theres a bunch of valid points, and i was thinking something along the lines of this.Quote:

as steven said, crack head control, not crackhead.
ric is just trying to look out for his kids in the best way he can. no reason why people have to get titchy. i disagree with him but i dont see a problem with him calling it kraken control if he wants.
how old are your kids btw ric?
This thread makes me want to go smoke crack.
The most vulgar language Barncat has ever used is 10th planet technique names... No joke. I don't have a problem with the names, but alot of people kinda step outside their comfort zone saying a few of them. I agree tho, we cannot ask them to be changed. Maybe in the future the naming will be a little more PG rated.
But.. Your comfortable choking other men unconscious or getting choked, but you can't say crackhead? I mean, it takes a special kind of guy to break arms as a hobby and still speak like a nun. I respect you guys.
