[quote=Anonymous]I mean, the person has a disease that prompted the outburst. While the outburst included hurtful racial slurs, the reality is there was no malicious intent. A host should have quickly stepped in to explain what was happening. “Pardon me, but I must explain what just happened. Some of you might not be aware that Joe (whatever his name is) has TS—a condition that blah blah blah.” Use it as an educational experience, clarify there was no racial intent, and ideally sum up with a statement about how far we’ve come that a person with TS is at the event, etc. I mean, don’t people know anyone with mental health issues, dementia, mental handicaps? Etc? People say things that you need to let roll off your back by reminding yourself of their very real condition/issues. [/quote]
