Well that's stupid. I've met many an intellectually disabled and they're not retarded. How do you they think feel since you group labeled them.

I had to chuckle at the original post. We have a guy who has Autism/Down's but can operate on his own. He plays on our church softball team & I have heard him call "intellectually disabled" folks screwing up who aren't retarded...he keeps calling them a retard when they do something stupid... He can be savage & you better not have thin skin around him.

If I know anything, it’s that the people in this thread know all the nuances between retard / disabled / downs/ and autism

We had a married couple with cerebral palsy, you may of thought not too smart, but no he had a job and drove and she was mom to a couple of normal children. They were extremely nice just different. Took them a little longer to get in and out of church.

I thought retarded had become special needs....

Picture this, I refresh Auburn rant for the first time since this morning, then see there's been 150 new posts. I get hyped just to see jang arguing again. What a disappointment
