You hear that word, “retarded” everywhere. Mostly people use that word as a different word to call people, “stupid”. People use the word, “retarded” in many other ways. The word “retarded”, is especially most used all over the internet.

This is a well written blog post, explaining why the word being used is wrong. People need to be careful and watch their mouth when they use the word retarded.

I’ve been called a retarded person by some people a lot of times. Not because they call me that word for being stupid, people actually think of me as a mentally handicapped person and I’ve been accused of going to special ed school which none of it’s true. I may have some imperfections, but that doesn’t make me a retarded person.

I personally can’t stand it when people use that word, myself. People use it ’cause they want to feel tough in front of their friends. They like the attention when they use that word. When people use that word, they get a mixed reaction, some will get offended and some will think it’s alright. That’s the kind of attention they get when they use that word. I see that word being used in facebook status’s and comments everyday. People think they’re cool when they use it, that’s the only reason they use it.

If people used that word in front of my face, they would certainly get a punch in the mouth.
