    Look, I’ve been on online communities for thirty years. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve seen someone say something was good or bad and they turned out to be full of crap. Some things are easy to confirm or disprove, and I usually take the time to do that, but this isn’t one of those things. So yes, I was asking for some kind of confirmation. Does that mean I don’t respect people with disabilities? No. I’m not defending anything, and I’m fact I don’t think I’ve ever personally used that term myself. Breaded on the number of people downvoting in this thread (my only downvote was when you disparaged me personally), a number of other people had the same reaction.
