What do you call a person with Down syndrome eating French fries? Cannibalism.
Do you think it's right to make jokes about people with Down syndrome?
I think they can take it since they look cute sometimes.
I don't think it's right to make jokes about people with Down syndrome, as they can perpetuate prejudice. It's not right to treat people Down syndrome poorly, or dehumanize them. There are a number of great TV shows and documentaries about people with Down syndrome, and I think if you watched some you'd realize why this kind of joke is harmful.
It's just a joke.
But your words have real life consequences. People with down syndrome have feelings and they know when you are making fun of them.
