The phonetic spelling of the old norse version is used in the name of Kunta Kinte from Roots. If that word is acceptable when used in a name shouldn't it also be acceptable when describing a piece of old rope?

In either case whether the word starts with a C or a K they are not swear words and shouldnt be blotted out. If I choose to abuse the word then it would be a vulgar swear word. But I didnt and instead what is being enforced by the man isnt abuse of language but rather politcal correctness.
