[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you're telling me that due to coprolalia, he has absolutely no control over his outbursts... yet his brain is "automatically" able to tailor a specific insult for a specific recipient?

Black people:  Ns
Queen:  f the queen

What's next?
SA survivors:  "you f'ing deserved it"
Women PhDs:  "dumb w---res"
Person in wheelchair:  "cripple"

Really?

I'd maybe buy it if he called everyone Ns or hoes.  But this just seems too far fetched.

Why does his brain go there, lol[/quote]

Watch the movie.[/quote]

The movie is all about how hard this is for HIM.  Even the scene where he gets punched in the bar.  Well... he threw a drink on a stranger.  How do you think that felt for the poor guy who just wanted to have a good time and a random guy douses you with beer for no reason?

The movie wants to convince us that "good, loving" people should embrace his outbursts.  Like when he says stuff like "I put c-m in your drink" and they're all "awww!  That's adorable!"  It's not.  I have children and I can't imagine asking my 8 year old daughter to put up with someone yelling "suck my d--k!" to her.  That's not civilized.  That's disgusting.[/quote]

Okay sure. But what would you do if it was your daughter or son with this disorder and they were the ones yelling out obscenities and socially inappropriate things. What if was them having involuntary movement tics and knocking things? What if it was your child saying those words to others? Would you just be disgusted by them and keep them home? How would you protect their siblings? What would you do with your uncivlized child? Picture your kids - where would you send them away to to ensure they didn't bother anyone?[/quote]
Omg I’d love them and get them all the help I could, and I ALSO wouldn’t bring them to a funeral of a young child knowing that they would probably involuntarily yell out horrific things about the deceased and add layers of grief to the mourners. For one extreme example.  There is a middle ground between “they belong in every environment and people have to deal!” And “lock them in a padded room”[/quote]

But it isn't just a funeral - it can happen anywhere. They wouldn't be able to go to school or have friends or do anything social or recreational as they could be the disgusting, uncivilized creature you see John to be. They might knock a drink at school. You would have to get rid of them - send them to an institution where they can be isolated and not harm anyone with their words or actions. It isn't going to have less impact if they say a charged word and it impacts someone at school or home or the grocery store, it is still going to impact and that is all that matters. So when people say - why is this disgusting, uncivilized child out in public, get them out of here - you will agree and apologize for your child's disability and remove them from society right? It is harder when it is your child that you have to look at and label as disgusting, uncilivilized and not fit for public or society inclusion. John's mother frequently despised him too, as you would your kids - those disgusting, rude, uncivilized children - no one should have to ever, ever hear or see them. If you can say that about others, you would be the same with your own.[/quote]
