Putting a word off-limits to people is a denial of freedom.
Making words taboo is objectionable even when it is done in the name
of a worthy cause. Even racist insult words should not be taboo --
for instance, studying bigotry and opposing bigotry sometimes require
quoting them. See

However, that topic is a tangent here, so let's not go further down it.
