Default Fury as Ricky Gervais uses a Word thats upset Disabled groups





"Ricky Gervais has come under attack
by Down’s syndrome groups over his
frequent use of the word ‘mong’ to describe
people he thinks are stupid.
The comedian claims that its meaning has changed
from a derogatory term for those suffering with the
chromosome disorder to meaning nothing more than ‘complete idiot’."

I do not use this word
but as he is a Public person
he knows full well Twitter - then Papers -Then TV


It was debated this morning on ITV1HD Daybreak
with a down under comedy bloke
and a Lady that says its a Hate Crime use.



Maybe he could now say
He will no longer use it
still standing by what he claims,
