...therein lies the problem. Exclusively associating “retarded” with stupidity and worthlessness paints the mentally handicapped as empty people free of emotion. By demeaning them, this language simultaneously trivializes the struggle of relatives who provide for their handicapped loved ones. If John’s life is so meaningless, why did my mother waste the last 24 years...
Some people will easily shake the jumpiness, but others may not--and therein could lie a quiet national crisis. Unlike cockpit recorders and buried bodies, damaged psyches often require a long time to reveal themselves. The longer they take to appear, the longer they will take to heal.

He went on to outline the rules, the schedule and the venues (wryly named after various parts of the female anatomy) and, according to Bannon, concluded his speech with a pledge to issue membership cards that, he assured his deeply amused audience, could double as fake IDs. True to his word, soon...
