I just know how much I hate homophobia, racism, and all the other forms of ignorant elitism out there, and if the situation arises where someone is using that word to be hateful I don't ant there to be any question about whether or not it was acceptable behavior.

Yes I think you should ban people for using the word f@g, unless it`s an english person saying they`re having a f@g (cigarette) which is a term thats been used for decades.
I also think you should ban people for calling things g@y.

Not because of the reasons you give , but instead for having a lack of imagination to use a real word to describe something.
