First off, I don't live in Europe, I live in the United States. Secondly, you cannot get into trouble for calling someone a retard in this country buddy. If you could, everyone here would be in trouble for talking about President Bush, let alone random people on the internet. |
Same things are said in Europe too to be honest....
I wasn't having a go at you either, just I've been on a forum where recent action has been seen against 7 forum posters.
It's generally accepted that the word retard or creep say among others is a Hyperbole, and although not meant to be taken literally it sometimes is. Though no successful defamation action has arised from saying such words. So you're safe there - it's just not very nice
Often though if you're posting about a high ranking company official, you may find they try to bully you with legal action into making a 'public apology'
