The quiet town of Middleborough, Mass., just became a little quieter, as the residents voted on Monday night to impose a $20 fine on anyone who curses in public. Tired of teenagers and some adults shouting obscenities in public areas, the town voted 183-50 to approve a proposal from the police chief to clamp down on public profanity. Town officials insisted that it will only affect those who use profanity loudly and frequently, allowing officers to use their discretion about whether or not they should ticket people they believe are violating the ban." 50% rule. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504083_162-57451794-504083/profanity-banned-in-middleborough-mass-no-$/ Any thoughts?
