Which is a dismissive way of saying "you don't count," "I'm not hurting anybody," and "I have no accountability." <br /><br />Social opprobrium works to limit those who don't understand that their speech incites harm to others. And there is plenty of harm aimed at people with disabilites. That bias affects employment opportunities, housing, and, yes, violence against disabled persons. Social opprobrium like speaking up when someone uses a harmful word.<br /><br />Those people want to wait until free speech is defined as inciting harm against others? Oh, wait. It already IS defined at that.
