Some key words that are considered derogatory: Retard Nigger Which of these words have you used in the last 180 days? I have a son, who when I was his age, would have been labeled a “Retard”.  Why?  Because he requires near constant attention in class to keep on task.    Growing up, that same son would have been called a nigger. It disgusts me that people in our media, or who are in the attention of the media do not hold themselves accountable for the language that they are using.  For you to rationalize your use of the word “retard” by saying that you are talking about one person, rather than a
