Then let society deal with it in a less coercive manner. May I get kicked out of an establishment, but I fail to see how semantics manage to harm others
The law is by nature a coercive instrument. It upholds the standards by which civilized people live. It doesn't matter whether foul language "harms" others or not because decent, civilized people should be able to go out in public without being exposed to obscenity.
How does cursing throw our culture into the garbage can?
It isn't cursing. It is the erosion of civilized standards promoted by people who do not believe in those civilized standards.
