And calling something retarded or someone retarded is offensive, because it is unfair on people who sometimes can't help being the way they are. My opinion? I say bring out the banhammer. I think you meant to say "autistic" rather than "retard". They are most certainly not the same. If someone was legitimately retarded, they probably wouldn't even be posting on this site to begin with. Not being bigoted, just saying that I think you probably meant to say something else. But I do agree with you to a certain degree, knowing that someone is autistic and then constantly flaming them for it should be a bannable offense on this site.
