Lebron James was frustrated after a recent play -off game where he did not play especially well. He found one of the questions that a reporter asked him to be particularly irksome and off-putting. James referred to The Question as being "ret**ded"
The ARC , a nationwide Mental Health Advocacy and Support Organization, found the use of the word " re***ded" to be egregiously offensive and strongly challenged and chided Lebron James for choosing to use that word.
Mr. James, for his part, apologized for his use of that word. One commentator , in Lebron's defense, said that Lebron did NOT say that any person was ret**ded, but he referred to the QUESTION that was posed to him as being ret**ded !
Is Lebron's defender splitting hairs, or Does he or she have a valid point ?
