Handicapped people

Im going to get right to the pont, please state your opinion on handicapped people and the way they are treated. (handicapped i mean by abnormalities like dwarfs people in wheel chairs ect)

i feel that people in wheel chairs should have some help, like ramps and things, but i have met people who correct me when i say handicapped, they say handicapable, that is moronic in my opinion, u do not have to cover up your uncomfortability. they are used to it... this may sound harsh but i do know that people tend to coddle WAY more than is neccesary

same goes for dwarfs except drarves could have it harder. people laughing ect... but i cant see sum1 laughing at a short person....

and mentaly retarded people..... they make me uncomfortable.... i dont like them in public schools... they deserve to b there, that i am aware of... i still feel strangely compelled to leave a room if one enters

Well the mentally defficient... unless you are in a special education class, you probably wont have much contact with them. Where I live there are a lot of them, and if you are just kinda and polite, to most of them it relaly just ligts up their day. I mean yes i can get uncomforatable, but theres no real reason to...

handicapalbe? never heard of it. right well i can understand where the physically disabled would need some help with things, and overcoddling is a bit better than... well... undercoddling. I am sure many dislike the pity they get as much as the indifference, but its just a human reaction. I guess its partly about being 'politically correct' because nobody wants to be seen being rude to a crippled person... im not well versed in the subject.

Troll looking for trouble.

<edit> maybe if a disability towards English spelling and grammar had been given the same amount of attention as your rant, we might not have had to read the post more than twice for disbelief, we might have been able to summarise in less than a minute that you were looking for trouble.

Such patronising and ignorant crap. I have no more to say right now.

Were you born this stupid and obnoxious or is it something you have to practice at?

If you are serious with this thread, it shows a stunning insensitivity. If I read this correctly you're bothered that someone would want to be thought of as capable and useful, a normal member of society...I'm closing this thread...it's insulting and just inciting trouble.
