We are humans and have the ability to speak. While people do call others names and insult them on a daily basis, I do not think it should be considered "OK". I think part of being an adult is acting like one. People should e able to disagree with out the insults.

I have been guilty of it like most others (I have 2 infractions) and I regret it. I let my emotions get the better of me and said things I should not have said. I think it is sad when we let arguments degrade into shouting/name calling matches.

Yes it happens, but it should not be OK that it happens. If someone hurls an insult, then I want to see them smacked on the wrist. If they continue to do so then give them a tie out. There is no reason we should not be able to disagree with each other in an adult manner.
