HARRY POTTER CHARACTER INCREASING CURSING
HARRY POTTER CHARACTER INCREASING CURSING
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (Wireless Flash) Harry Potters friend, Ron Weasley, has some etiquette instructors screaming bloody murder. Anne Colvin Winters of the National League of Junior Cotillions fears kids who see Harry Potter will start mimicking Ron by saying the phrase bloody amazing. Sound like bloody nonsense? Maybe, but Winters says bloody is a curse word in England and hopes American kids will be more culturally sensitive to our allies. However, other anti-swearing experts arent as bloody worried about kiddie cursing. James V. OConnor, who runs the Cuss Control Academy in Lake Forest, Illinois, says there are worse words than bloody, one of them being the word sucks.
