That Word "SPASTIC"

Re: Re: That Word "SPASTIC"

I don't see nothing wrong with the word Spastic. Don't find anything wrong with, fat, Paki, Jew, ******, Coon, White milk shake etc.

FFS, it's only a word, if people find it offensive then get a grip, it's only a word.

I can imagine people on here, you’re in a pub and get called fatty, you'd run of crying shouting 'He called me fatty'

This country has to much politely correctness.

You wont mind me calling you a f***ing right wing retard then ?

Possibly I suppose the "s" word is the most offensive.

Yes

I find it highly offensive personally.

What do others think ?

Me too.

One of my oldest childs friends came home for tea the other day and called my sons sick little sister a spakker for not being able to walk up the stairs. Needless to say he was asked not to repeat such words in our house and I told his mum who was mortified.

I don't really care for people throwing it around randomly but when someone refers to me or my kids, nuh-uh. Maybe those who are so free with it would think differently if they had a child with special needs.

I am deaf and wear hearing aids. I dont take offence to various words that are thrown about (not because I don't hear them )

If people are happy using these words then I couldn't care less. If they want to be irreverent human beings then it is up to them. There is no point arguing with an idiot, as they bring you down to their level.

I was the subject of abuse during a hockey game at Uni, playing against our 2nd XI in the league. They had not lost for 2 years and they were playing the 4th XI (my team) with beer guts galore. The keeper was making comments all throughout the match and it spurred me on. I scored, we won and then I shook his hand at the end of the game. It took a lot of self control, but I wanted to prove than just beacuse you have a defect, doesnt make you strange or non-human.

I prefer to talk about these things, rather than avoid the subject. I guess I am going on a little so.......

I like this post a lot. Nice one Barrel.

That's the problem with standards of decency. Where do you draw the line?
Everyone has different ideas of what is offensive and what is decent and respectful.

Well the obvious way is for people to apologise and edit their post when they have offended someone, even if inadvertently.
