Your use of "nearly" is a little demeaning. I'm sorry if you would not be upset if my wife was struck. It's a big deal to me as I love her very much and I'm glad I prevented it.
People probably are not publicly agreeing with me because they don't want to be labeled as intolerant by the politically correct crowd. Being popular should never be confused with being right.
Just for some background, I very commonly worked with mentally ill / developmentally delayed people in my former life. I never treated them like babies that had no control over their decisions. Yes, many have limitations, but accepting every act they do does them a disservice. Its actually more respectful to expect them to make good decisions.
As stated before, this individual knows his actions are unwelcome, he can control them, and he chooses not to. |
