There are two ways to address such issues.

       being sometimes offensive to others.

I don’t think being offended gives me the right to shut you up, so I
happen to prefer solution #2.

I think that the problem is that some people seem to have proposed solution #3:

3. Only certain people are allowed to speak, depending on whether the opinions are morally correct.

I thought we'd pretty much established that the CoC would be applied to behavior within debian, though, and that there would not be a morality cabal, so I'm not sure why this is still being argued.
