the worst sort. Anyone w/ eyes can look within their own communities, their own families, their own close-knit group of friends and see all sorts of handicaps within their own group. Eyeglasses, hearing aids (me), limping (a favorite cousin of mine, polio as a child), etc. The list is endless, as the handicaps range through the whole span of the body and mind. And we done pretty damn good for the most part, in helping these beautiful individuals to become more in their own ways through a variety of ways, as we have done over centuries in this country.
What also sadly is true is that scumbags of the lowest sort have always been around, mocking these members of our society who are handicapped in some manner. They do this, thinking that they can attack these victims in relative safety, w/o being attacked in return.
Cowards. Pure and simple, Cowards.
They don't realize that the handicapped have friends, families, all sorts of friends in their corner. As a person suffering a profound loss of hearing, I went to school w/ these developmental challenged individuals as before they recognized my handicap as being one of just profound hearing loss, so they outfitted me w/ hearing aids, and then started the process of rehabbing, reteaching me English, how to speak, etc. I was lucky, caught in time (I was 9 years old when this was discovered). I went into the regular school system starting in the 4th grade. There are still words that I just quite get on pronouncing them. And yes, I still miss tons of conversations, but all of my friends know this, all of them know if they talk to me, make sure that I'm looking at them (to read their lips).
Those that mock, stand in their own filth and are the bottom of the human race, the scum of the human race, the foul far worse than the handicapped
