Fallout from Rahm "F***ing Retarded" Emanuel’s Incivility
- 0 Comments
First, read this.
Am I missing something? Or does the word “retarded” simply mean slowed, impeded, held back?
What is “crude,” “demeaning,” or “name calling” about the word? It seems purely diagnostic.
I understand that Sarah Palin has a child with Down syndrome, and she might be sensitive about Trig being teased or bullied. Still and all, words mean what they mean; you cannot make mental retardation go away by demanding nobody speak its name.
Who’s with me on this?
