** Article removed for reasons of taste. ***
This was an piece of writing expressing how much I care about the developmentally dissabled. Unfortunately, the off-the-cuff style it was written in (i.e. using the term "retard" even if just to make a point) totally skewed my true feelings in the translation. I was (rightfully) flamed by every person, zine, and magazine who reviewed this issue. The unintended negativity of this article over-shadowed everything else in this issue and therefore I have chosen to remove the article from any public forum.
Let it be known that I deeply care for all humans who have dissabilities. Our generation shall one day be judged based on the way we treat those of us who haven't been given the same opportunities in life.
