Offensiveness is defined by whoever can complain the loudest, and inflict the most guilt on those who decide what is offensive, and what is not.
"Jesus Christ, God Damn it"... OK... "Fag, Homo"... Not OK.

It's also defined by whether the statement is an attack or a standard oath such as, "God damn, I missed my appointment". Who's being attacked in a statement like that vs. calling someone "fag" or "homo"?
It's standard oaths vs perjorative statements about a group. I don't really see where the two compare.
I once went to England on business.
In that country "fag" is the slang for a cigarette.
Outside of the buildings there would be a bucket of sand labeled "fags" for people to put their cigarette butt's in before entering.
"Jesus Christ, God Damn it"... OK... "Fag, Homo"... Not OK.

That's so gay.

Then I'm Certain that they have Modified Jeff Foxworthy's Routine to Beep out "Redneck", correct?...
And "Homo" is NOT a Pejorative... It's Perfectly Accurate.
"Fag" is a Pejorative.

Homosexual isn't, "homo" IS. It's in the intent. That's why "redneck" has not been bleeped out. The intent isn't there.
GLBT people actually exist. They might really be hurt by the insults hurled their way.
Jesus? Well, if he exists, surely he's beyond being hurt by a tv show.
"Jesus Christ, God Damn it"... OK... "Fag, Homo"... Not OK.

It's "Ghey"... Like "Phat" and "Nigga"... Otherwise you are a Hateful and Intolerant Cracker!...
And YOU aren't allowed to say "Nigga" either, Motherfucker!
