Erase The "R" Word

"That's retarded." "You're acting retarded" These are things people say without even realizing it, and it's become so normal that no one really thinks about the true meaning of the word. Many people usually saying not trying to offend the mentally ill, but anyway you put it, it still can hurt someones feelings. There is a group of about 250,000 people who had pledged to join the "Special Olympics Campaign" And hopefully make this racial slur come to an end. There have been other efforts to get rid of the word, like in 2010 Obama's "Rosa's Law" eliminated the word in federal health, education, and laws.  In order for people to stop using this word, they need to understand the meaning and know that using in certain ways are rude and derogatory. Stop using the "R" word.
