Saturday, August 07, 2010 8:15:35 PM "They possess unconditional love." I can think of some pretty salient counterexamples to this claim. A retarded boy at my school once punched another student in the head and broke his glasses. It's not really his fault; he's retarded, after all. But it wasn't unconditionally loving, either. |

Saturday, August 07, 2010 3:51:14 PM Some non-retarded people also don't suffer from bigotry or hatred y'know. Being retarded doesn't automatically make you a saint. We all just ARE. Get over it. |

Saturday, August 07, 2010 2:01:00 PM I use to be very offended when people used the word "Retarded" to mean stupid. That was until I learned the accurate definition of the word. It was then that I began to laugh at those people. Because they are truly RETARDED. But so is EVERYONE in the world. EVERYONE is RETARDED, in one form or the other. If it were not so everyone would be equal. Equal pay Equal Jobs Equal Education Everyone would learn at the same pace. Everything would be the same if no one in the world was retarded in some way or the other. It still hurts when I know that people are making fun of the mentally challenged and Down Syndrome people (considering being Downs means you have an extra chromosome). In a way the mentally challenged are more advanced than we are; they know more about being human, being kind. They don't suffer from bigotry, or hatred. They possess unconditional love. So who is more retarded (or slow), the “menta |

Saturday, August 07, 2010 8:20:19 AM There shouldn't actually be a problem with calling someone retarded. Modern society has changed the word to have a negative connotation, so now everyone thinks it's not a nice thing to say. Mentally handicapped just sounds strange because you're not describing exactly what it is. People with dyslexia are also technically 'mentally handicapped' because their brains function slightly wrongly, but they are not retarded. |

Saturday, August 07, 2010 1:35:14 AM OH yes I remember, I was put into the Retard class because I had a hard time learing and was also a half breed. In the 70's this was normal. |

Saturday, August 07, 2010 12:43:52 AM This country has become a cesspool of spineless bitches. I like people who say what's on their mind, short and sweet. To do otherwise is to take up company with lying, manipulating offspring o' sluts. |

Friday, August 06, 2010 8:22:50 PM Hell, retarded doesn't even mean stupid, it technically means something that's pulled back, or held back, or some variation of that. But still, this makes no damn sense. He's bright and also retarded? What? |
