Last night I had a disagreement with a friend over the use of the word RETARDED.
My main premise?
I have a family member who has worked for an Association of Retarded Citizens for DECADES. They've championed mentally challenged citizens forever and I figure if their association hasn't decided to change the name of their Association then you know what? Folks looking for drama in ANY.DAMN.THING were the ones who attempted to create drama in it.
But that's just me.
Maybe.
Here are the results from asking Mr. Google about Retarded Citizens Association: RESULTS
Yeah...seems like MANY organizations decided wasn't a darn thing wrong with their name.
So...what say YOU? Do you think the word RETARDED should be considered the "R-Word?" You know...a word we should never, ever mention?
