    Where I’m from people use it frequently, but never about disabled people. They just mean stupid. In that capacity I agree, it’s literally the same on every level as idiot, moron, imbecile, feeble-minded, dumb, etc.

    If someone uses the word to refer to a mentally handicapped or disabled person, we’re gonna fight. If you call attacking Iran retarded, I agree wholeheartedly.
