I agree.

There are plenty of things that might fall into a gray area, but I think most people would be courteous enough to remove an avatar if someone took it the wrong way and got offended.

Ah, okay.

Now I'm wondering what the DC in Washington DC stands for!

District of Columbia.

The city of Washington isn't in a state - it's in the District of Columbia. The founding fathers did this because they didn't want the capitol to be in a particular state due to quarrels over states' rights.
