yes, of course - he's saying that they are idiots, morons, cretins, imbeciles
he is being dismissive of what he perceives to be their lack of intelligence
assuming the first, then yes, the second automatically applies, by definition
as ironic as your inability to come up with anything more intelligent than "troll" :chuckle:
Wow, so Town has a habit of trying to censor people here.
he reported me once for "insulting a state" :darwinsm:
What the, your kidding. I think I will stop from ever trying to reason with Town again.
Which state is it? I am just curious about the incident. lol
his home state, of course

It's a word being retired from professional use. The following, by way of example, is a quote from the Disability Language Style Guide, used by journalists. LINKRetarded isn't a bad word, it is a real condition.
Well then, I can tell you that you're likely going to be very relieved.I couldn't care to have friends like you and yours.
I'd go further and wager they're among the great hidden mysteries of forum life.I am disliked for good things, things you obviously know nothing about.
Well, you're safe and protected from it, aren't you.As for that other site, it is too evil.
Or maybe it's just you.I've been here for going on seven years, and wrote thousands upon thousands of posts about the Holy Bible. If no one sees any good qualities about me, or if they think they have to give me lessons on making friends, then maybe they should look into themselves why they don't like me just the way I am.
Sure you have. I mean just look at all the people giving you a hard time in the very place where anyone who wanted to could unload on you without consequence. I mean...it's shocking.I have been attacked here worse than anyone
If you're any more restrained you're going to have an aneurysm.and still showed great restraint in defending myself and my beliefs.
Those are mostly the sort of people who use "retard". Pond scum trying to take what they believe to be as low a shot as can be given. Because when they call someone without a mental disability "retard" it only has strength by connection to your son and people like him. They're insulting both at the same moment.When out in public, an older woman called him 'stupid', another time someone said I should keep my animal at home.
You need to think harder.I do think I have earned the right to use the word 'retarded' if I so please.
So it's like anyone telling you anything that doesn't suit you then.What gets me is people like Town Heretic trying to school me or anyone else on it.
And I have six arms and when the sun comes up I glow. To add more made up nonsense to his pile of a proffer.town is a leftist/liberal social justice warrior, always looking for a cause
If she didn't she's on par with you.not sure if you followed the "redskins" thread:
Another swing and a miss. You should try baseball, if only to see how it feels to fail in another medium.Wow, so Town has a habit of trying to censor people here.
Like saying you're never going to sing at the Met, again.I think I will stop from ever trying to reason with Town again.
Sod likes to insult the South. He cherry picks the NY history, which is like him, and generally confuses himself on the rest...he's a very bad guy too, by the way.Which state is it? I am just curious about the incident. lol

- Mentally retarded
Background: The terms “mentally retarded,” “retard” and “mental retardation” were once common terms that are now considered outdated and offensive. In 2010, President Barack Obama signed a measure known as “Rosa’s Law” that replaced the term “mental retardation” with intellectual disability in many areas of government, including federal law.

Okay, that brings us up to date. I'll check back in a couple of days to see what you girls have been up to. :e4e:
...he's a very bad guy ...
... you girls ...
town demonstrates a recognition of my gender:
then, inexplicably, town forgets:
what possible reason might town have had for calling me a girl?
could it be that when town calls someone without a female gender "you girls" it only has strength by connection to town's imagined perception that women are worthy of disdain?
that sounds to me like the actions of a very bad guy indeed
Well, I didn't say you did, but you have, if inferentially. And for someone who decides that anyone finding fault with someone else's reason is indistinguishable from someone saying "retard" that's pretty funny.First of all, I never called anyone online retarded.
What have you ever said that you wouldn't say that about?Though I could, and it would be justified.
No, it's much wider than that and I've noted it prior with you. It's a movement.Well that is what some parents of children with down syndrome say
I'm not sure if it's that you can't get it, or that you just don't want to. Either way, it's not complicated.Just because those parents are insulted by my son's diagnosis doesn't help their discriminatory case. How dare they be insulted by my son's diagnosis.
No one would read you, from the moment you entered this conversation, and believe for a moment that this exchange could be about that. You already goofed that chance up when you decided to blame me for your conduct and banning, mistakenly as it turns out.Is this your how to make friends outline?
It takes an effort for some of us.You sure try hard to be disliked.
Not if you understood it, no. What I actually said was the sort of person who said that about your son is the sort of person who uses retard aimed at those without a mental challenge, tying both together in their mind to offer the lowest insult they can. Pond scum.Like what you just did?
Then you're a sad excuse for a person, with or without the connection that should humanize you but for some reason doesn't.I like it the way ok doser uses it;
I don't use or imply it. I can't speak for Tooley, but I'd be surprised if you could quote him doing that.but I do not like the way you and Tooleyweed imply it to others.
Sod? Absolutely. He uses faith to separate and harm people. He lies routinely to manipulate the unstable and gullible. He uses retard and "find Christ" for the same reason. A very bad fellow.He is a 'bad guy'?
He's not your friend. He's simply happy to have someone share in his obsession and hostility. He thinks your work based salvation is contrary to scripture. It probably doesn't really matter to him. Certainly it doesn't matter as much as you continuing this with me at the moment. And that should, but likely won't wake you.The only reason why I decided to reply more in detail to what you said to me was because my friend ok doser cared enough to reply in detail to you.

Many people, especially these days, are willing to submit their character to something beneath it in the mistaken belief that the ends will justify their means.Many areas of government, especially federal law, are retarded.

Your peculiar read-in on the "girls" comment was off the mark as well. It's a long standing comment I've made about sod and a couple of others who will gather to talk about me or make threads about me. Not many people, but a determined and twisted group. Listening in is like reading the diary of 15 year old girls talking about an ex. So I mostly don't.
I also don't respect men or women for their sex. I respect people for their character and the quality of their reason.
