For months, Grenadians had been in deep debate with themselves. A vigorous debate that seeks to find a way into cubing the open use of obscene language, and the consensus that was arrived at appears to be clearly laid down, arrest the violators. Of course, I agree that anyone who relied on obscene language as a means of expressing him or herself lacks the command of English Language, a sad reality indeed. However, there are times when these obscene language expression is needed, and the story I am about to share in this blog is one such case.
 
 
I am not a lover of the use of obscene language, but the idea that one can get arrested for using words society deem as being obscene is ridiculous. In the light of last carnival and the uproar that evolves around the calypsonian Beast’s use of the word “ass,” many are calling for the arrest of people using such words. This I think is asinine.
 
 
Grenada is a beautiful country, and its citizens express the pinnacle of beauty, intelligence and charm, but sometimes these characteristics are eclipse by the lunacy express by some of our people. This lunacy of which I speak is the attack launched against the calypsonian beast, an attack protesting his use of the word “Ass” in one of his songs.
