we are truly thankful that people are speaking out.
Thank you for speaking out on this issue. I have an adult daughter with Autism and Intellectual Disabilites. My daughter also has a huge heart, is a good worker and friend and has a lot of courage for living through life where others often look down on you for being different. I recently was forwarded a picture on Facebook of a person with intellectual disabilities crossing the finish line in a race with the heading ” arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics if you win/finish you are still retarded” I felt sick to my stomach. I marked the picture as offense in Facebook. I searched for this phrase and found thousands of entries. This is incredibly ignorant and unacceptable. Thank you for your sight.
THANK YOU SOOOO much! this is THE word that I wish would disappear!
I will give you more than just an Amen. I work with a Sunday School class for the Mentally Challenged. I’m more than sure they will all want to help spread the word to end the r-word and purchase some of the pretty t-shirts on this site!
