No, but I was originally replying to post 8: All that inbreeding doubtless led to some Mongoloids.

How am I supposed to take this 'joke'? Down Syndrome is a genetic defect (not caused by inbreeding). To me, it sounds pretty darn crude.

I guess I missed the nuance of the joke.

My point is that it is possible to use the word in a innocent way.

If the poster intended it as a joke, it was tasteless and ignorant.
