Title: To Think About
Post by: cc on September 13, 2015, 11:02:06 PM
I just noticed this section.



I want to throw  this out for thought



Use of the word "retard" (and other comparable words) stops me cold every time I see or hear it / them, always has, always will. To me it misuses a dreadful conditions that are not the fault of people who have the condition



Seems to me not right to use it.  That's me, may not be others



I'm very sensitive on use of ANY words that in effect make fun of ANY condition that is not voluntary



From a practical perspective, it does not do justice to what has become a truly admirable forum / site



My 2 bits worth
