That's a mean thing to do. I don't refer to people with mental or physical disabilities as retards, so I have no problem calling someone who I think is an idiot a retard. It's the same, to me, as calling someone slow. The origin of the word (re is back and tardus is slow) contains it's true meaning. Retarded means very foolish, slow, or stupid. If you wish to retard something, you wish to stop it or slow down it's growth. When some bigot starts using a word to belittle a group of people, I refuse to let the bigot own that word. It was our word before they started using it. Feck them! Read this: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/fighting_words/2006/12/eschew_the_taboo.html

Hatred will always find a way, and will certainly always be able to outpace linguistic correctness.

I'm sure the last time I used that particular word was to say "Did you know they say nigger over one hundred times in 12 Years a Slave?". The article I linked talks about using niggardly, a common word to describe someone who is tight with their money, and how there's a stigma around using this word because it sounds like nigger. This is ridiculous. Faggot is a derogatory term for homosexuals. I'm not prejudice against homosexuals so I wouldn't call a homosexual a faggot, but I have no problems using the word appropriately as I am doing so now. The same goes for Paki. Fagot on the other hand, is a bundle of sticks. I'm surprised you made that blunder. Two g's is a derogatory term, one g is the innocent bundle of sticks which is rarely used nowadays. I think you've missed the crux of my point of view here. Did you even bother to read the article? The last sentence is key:
