boycot johnny knoxvill's mew film the ringer
friends and strangers alike i have a request.
Boycott johnny knoxvills new film the ringer its about a man who pretends to be mentally challenged so that he can compete in the special Olympics.
Knoxvill former star of jackass has now stooped to a new low. this is disrespectful and sickening to me a disabled people all over the world have been put through enough mainly cause we are misunderstood. and for him and the makers to do a film like this is wrong
I give HUGE props to those who compete in both the special Olympics and the other one. these people who compete in these 2 events are choragus strong people
it is my feeling that this film spits on the athletes in the special Olympics. these athletes deserve to be revered and not disrespected as this film would do.
its not fair, and its so not right. its hard for us to live the life we live and its only for the strong and those who refuse to give up. its not funny its very serious and this is soooo wrong, it paints us in a bad life. in a culture whos prejudices have already cause those of us who are different then the norm so much pain anguish and hardship
in the clips Ive seen of this movie. it makes us look like were complete and utter morons. just cause some of us my talk or move differently then non disabled people. please know that disabled people are not stupid. were just misunderstood, and were just trying to live our lives the very best way we can
I implore my friend who know me, know what Ive gone through with being a disabled man, and those who can see and understand the point im trying to make. please repost this message. and i hope those who read this and dont know me. will see why im doing this and help me and my people out.
Lets shout out in one voice that this stuff isnt funny its mean spirited. together lets try and make a difference so that future generations may not have to experience the prejudices that exist in our world today
let us all help take a stand and say we want a world without hate, and without racism. Weather it be disabled , racial religious or sexual. lets do our part to end it now. it the hope that our actions can help cleanse the would out the evils that exist in it.
