I'm all about bringing back the term retarded. I never stopped using it. Thought it was absurd to remove it from everyday parlance. "Retard" I'm more hesitant to use publicly, but it's perfectly fine to say among friends, and I imagine very few people ever use it nowadays in an attacking way against someone with developmental disabilities. Besides, we hardly ever use the term "retarded" in a clinical sense anymore anyway, so it's become just like "idiot." The word kind of watered itself down.
