Should Retards be treated Equal? Can't Post

Now I mean I'm not being politcally correct but who cares. All i'm trying to do is get all of your idea's on this little predicament. All of the disabled/retarded people are saying that they want equality and they want to be treated the same as everyone else. Yet they do want special needs. Like a special pass to the front of the line for example. Carlos Mencia makes a great point on this.

Mainly because he throws up a good argument.

Discuss.

If they want to be equal, then they shouldn't look for special treatment. If they don't, then we all should be happy.

I mean like no mixing because that [Expletive Deleted] is confusing. Either stay equal or be treated special, I have no prpblem doing one, just not both.

Because being equal is impossible if they're getting special treatment.

They are not equal, so treating them as if this were so would be making them into something they are not.

Well I mean within reason. Giving them the full power to be equal would be ridiculus. I mean towards discounts, cutting in line, FREE passes, FREE t-shirts, FREE payments towards bills (electrical, gas, water, ect...). Stuff like that.

I never thought we'd make a thread like this because I thought the answer was obvious. Didn't Carlos Mencia answer it for you? If you get special treatment, that makes you unequal. It makes you inferior. The fact that you apparently NEED special treatment is what makes everyone else better than you. If you're so equal than you can wait in line like everyone else. If you're so equal than you can open your own doors and pull out your own chairs. If you're too disabled or mentally challenged to do these things then you're already less of a human. You lose.

I don't either. You'd be stupid to. All this "happy holidays" and "African-American instead of 'black'" bullshit is stupid enough to make you want to hork. Maddox already made a point -- not all black people are from Africa, and not all African-Americans are black. Why go through the trouble? Calling someone black is more efficient and isn't insulting unless you're retarded, and if you are then no one cares what you think. And it's the same thing with people getting pissed off when people say "Merry Christmas" to them when they don't celebrate Christmas. Well they're certainly not going to walk up to you and ask if you do; no one has time for that. Watch the RvB Holiday PSA and you'll get where I'm coming from; we might as well not talk to people in English because they might not speak English. People whine about too much shit. It makes me sick.

Re: [Bleak] Should Retards be treated Equal? [In reply to] Can't Post

At my school there are some 'retards'. They can't speak, and block the hallway with their weelchairs. I hate them. My school hallways are pretty narrow, especially in places with ramps, (Going to the aud and stuff, so the retards aren't using them) and at these choke points, I ALWAYS get stuck behind this one idiot, whose been in Grade 12 as long as I've been in highschool, (I'm in Grade 12 now) adn she can barley manage to move her mechanical weelchair 2 inhes a minuite. She stops and starts (and can't steer. all you see is her dumb ass 'advisor' saying "come on.. you can do it"). Plus, she can't talk. She talks like "Uhhhhnnnhnnn uhhhNNAGH!" Someone like that, i don't care how smart she is on the inside, if she can't COMMUNICATE, she shouldn't be in highschool.The number of times my friends and I have had our feet run over by idiots in these chairs...


EDIT: Thanks for letting me rant about this, and get it out of my system.

Re: [Shinysheep] Should Retards be treated Equal? [In reply to] Can't Post

On a serious note I don't really understand why they bother to put challenged kids in the same schools. I know it's "fair" and I know they can be good people but they are really dead weight as harsh as it sounds. They are enrolled in the same classes but do so much less and work on things at such a low level. I understand it helps them get through highschool but what are they going to do in the real world when they don't have paras anymore? Both my aunt and one of my uncles on my dad's side of the family are challenged and I know it is tough to live like it but you can't give them everything on a silverplater because you feel sorry for them. Unsure

Yes sirr.

But I do draw the line that when some people say their a waste of space, their not. They just simply either need to be treated differently around the school systems. They don't function the same as someone who can jump in the air and land on their feet, instead of jumping and landing on thier face.

One guy at my works in the cafeteria at my school, and he is challenged. He just unpacks fries and chicken and stuff. It's emplyement, butI also realize that some people aren't as high functioning as that guy. My cousin has a deficiency, she can still speak, but has a limited intelligence. She can't work because she is confined to a wheel chair, so my aunt and uncle have to pay for her stay at a home. She is actually nice, and you can have conversations and stuff with her, it's just feels more awkward; the more you talk to her the easier it is.

Another girl that went to my elementary school and was severely challenged. She couldn't walk, talk or think. Our school spent large amounts of our resources on her, so badly that one year they had the entire class share tattered math and spelling texts so they could finance a brain cell shock therapy thing that did jack for her.

Each situation has to be treated differently, you can't generalize that all retards shouldn't/shouldn't be helped. As humans we are only as good as our weakest link, and so we have to help those weakest links as much as we can, but then there are the links that are beyond repair, and you just have break them off and replace them, but not in the whole kill/destroy/ignore sense, we should be helping those who can be helped, and tolerating those who can't.

Yeah, I'm sorry if I offended you Steve (your name is Steve now if it really wasn't earlier) what I meant by that statement is: In the future people will not be as willing to help them as they are now, and by giving them an endless crutch we make it even harder on them. When you take a wounded animal in and help it heal it is differen't then taking a wounded animal in and keeping it for a while then letting it go to roam the wildwith no more aid. On the second scenario nothing has changed besides his ability to work on its own. It sucks, really badly, but it's part of the gig. Unsure

Sadly, it's true. The same as in the wild. Carlos Mencia once also pointed this out. It's the circle of life, and nothing can stop it.

My mom is a teacher's aid that works with a kid that is at like a kindergarten level of understanding but he is supposed to be involved in high school crap in the name of "equality" because he is that age. It's her job to waste her time pretending to teach him things he will never understand.

No, really, it does not make sense to treat them equally. Political correctness itself is retarded. There is no way for them to be involved in things like "everyone else", it's just faked to make people look good.

Ugh, we are pethetic. Just searching up PC terms and I found this:

Politically Incorrect Colors -- Staff at a coffee shop in Glasgow refused to serve a customer who had ordered a 'black coffee', believing it to be ‘racist.’ He wasn’t served until he changed his order to 'coffee without milk'. Around the world we have reports of the word ‘black’ becoming emotionally charged and politically correct or incorrect depending upon one’s point of view.

If a person wants to treat the retarded as equal or to treat them nicely then that would be up to that person. But giving retards a special advantage in school (for example) is unfair.
