I believe as this community is essentially a parliamentary session, any vulgar or obscene commentary should be strongly discouraged. Much like the speaker of the house, moderators should consistently remind those who break the above guideline to refrain. Repeat offenders / extreme examples should be subject to a temporary ban. Thoughts?
edit: I wonder what people think is the purpose of downvotes? Do you not want to have the discussion?

    I think this is a good discussion to have!

    The main rule should be civility, as in, criticize ideas, not people. If that’s effectively enforced, vulgarity shouldn’t really be an issue.

    Perhaps we could agree to a rule about keeping discussion relevant to the topic at hand, which would also help.

    I don’t think a rule about vulgarity is necessary because it really shouldn’t be an issue if we’re all trying to be constructive to the issue at hand. So discourage off topic discussion (and enforce if necessary), and the vulgarity issue should solve itself.
