  • Why would this be ***'d out in a yahoo answer?

    The other day I answered a question in Books and Authors and quoted from MLK Jr.'s "I Have a Dream Speech." When my answer was posted the word "*****" was starred out. This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. In what possible way could this be offensive to anyone? Help me understand this small piece of insanity. Of course the same word in this ? will be ***'d out so I guess it's pointless to ask here.
