With all due respect, Richard, you do appear, at times, to use your circumstances as a "get out of jail" card.
That is not what I said.
I asked why you would use those terms in the forum (however they were used in past times) when it is generally accepted that they are not appropriate in polite company nowadays. You are extremely vociferous in being anti-discriminatory for disability issues (understandably so, according to your posts regarding your circumstances), but not as much when it comes to matters/words that could be construed as being racially discriminatory.
