No wonder so many people got offended.  Because 90% of POL are retards.

Ok, quips aside, lets get back to the issue at hand.  I`m not a fan of that photo, although yes, the attached quote is quite funny.  However, people are called retards on a daily basis here.  Look, I just called you people retards.  Look in any other thread here.  People are called retards.  If you use "retards" as part of your daily vocabulary, you can`t get your panties in a bunch about this one.  Calling someone a retard when they are acting like an idiot is essentally making fun of a retarded person.  So if you are fine with that, remember that Robbie`s picture is just doing the same thing.

POL is one of the most hate-filled and vile places on the internet, but I don`t think that`s because of this thread.  This is a place were homophobic jokes are made routinely, people are called sullah`s, bhappay`s, fag`s, etc, and no one bats an eyelash.  Yet somehow when the picture of a retarded kid is posted, everyone goes berserk.  Give me a break.  You people make me sick.

"gay ppl like u are meant to be made fun of.. because u choose that life style"

There`s an enlightening observation.  So if you choose a lifestyle, you deserve to get made fun of?  Going beyond the obvious incorrect statement that homosexuality is a choice (virtually every scientific study says that it is inborn), am I allowed to make fun of people for being of another religion since, obviously, religion is a choice?  Thank you, Mr. Bhangra, for providing moral righteousness to Adnan`s physical attack of a Sikh.  You are a gentleman and a scholar.

Retards, retards everywhere...
