It varies. People feel anything from pity to disdain towards them. Some believe they should have been aborted, while others would like to see stem cell or other therapies to help them.
No, from the work Ive done on the subject, they do not. the fact is most mentally retarded people are infact - happy. they don' t realise or understand that they are less perfect than what people consider "normal" people.

Actually, the questions are not stupid for the most part. A lot of people just genuinely don't know things that you think they probably should know. So everyone has to start somewhere. It is normal to be curious and want to know why things are as they are.Being retarded is not a property of a question.
Believe me, retarded people are not acting. People who play act, imitating what they believe is a retarded person's behavior, are simply ignorant and probably in desperate need of attention with a severely retarded self-esteem. Such 'actors' are considered bullies, ridiculing the defenselessness of another person.

The Supreme Court has ruled it is unconstitutional to EXECUTE ( for a capital crime) a mentally retarded person.
About 3-4% of the mentally retarded population is severely retarded.
