No Cussing Club

I won't cuss, swear, use bad language, or tell dirty jokes. Clean language is the sign of intelligence and always demands respect. I will use my language to uplift, encourage and motivate. I will Leave People Better Than I Found Them!

14 Year old McKay Hatch started the No Cussing Club at his junior high school in South Pasadena, California in 2007. A lot of kids at his school would cuss and use dirty language all the time.

It bothered him so much that one day he challenged them to stop. But some of the kids said they didn't know how to stop. That's when he started the No Cussing Club.

I have an IQ of 163. Note that this is 63% above average. I cuss often, and enjoy it. Clean language is the sign of homosexuality, not intelligence.

How can anyone with a proposed IQ of 163 believe that a sign of homosexuality is clean language? With that type of conclusion, one can say heterosexuality is signaled by profanity. Steer away from knocking the positive by opening doors for the negative...Who is harmed by clean language? There are numerous consequences for foul language.
By the way, according to your state's special education laws, one an not assume what percentage an IQ falls above or below average.
