The problem is that "offensive" is not quantifiable term and it is
highly dependend on the reader. This is why FreeBSD ended up removing
everything, and this is where we are going to end up if we enter the
slippery road of sensorship.

A simple rule is: changes must be approved by <X>% of the developer
community (or <X>% of the developer votes).
