"WHAT THE.....HECK?"

 If you happen to a be thinking about moving to Middleborough, Massachusetts you might want to check your "foul" language at the county line. The New England county and its residence have had enough of individuals who do not care to curse in public.  So in order to keep their town clean and curse free they have decided to up the anti a bit.

According to a witness to the foul language, "The cursing has gotten very, very bad. I find it appalling and I won't tolerate it," said Duphily, a civic leader in the otherwise quiet New England community, which calls itself the Cranberry Capital of the World. "No person should be allowed to talk in that manner." Now anytime a residence curses in public they could be facing a $20.00 fine.

Mrs. Duphily is 63 years old and came to the conclusion that shouting at kids who did not care to drop the "F-bomb" on one another in a very indiscreet manner was not enough.  So she approached the county's Beautification Group.  This sparked a chain of events which led Mrs. Duphily's plea all the way to the ears of the local Police Chief who has now made it his mission to help stop the cursing in Middleborough.  For more on this story please go to the following link.
