little shit

is little shit swearing

Yes, in a mild form. :-D

"Sh*t" is always a swear word (it is still not allowed on US television, even though hell, damn and ass are.) However, it is often used colloquially as a term of endearment. "Oh, you little sh*t, you shouldn't have spent this much!" (upon opening a very expensive gift).

Is the asterisk (*) all that necessary? :-D
