[change] The word "cripples"

"cripples"? people haven't used this derogatory term for years. --Neal 08:36, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

True, writers today would use different words. (Some now object to "disabled" and "handicapped," that replaced "crippled" in the late 20th century). The word "crippled" was used in English at the time of The Holocaust (the middle of the 20th century). Some people use historical language when writing about the past. Anyway, that word isn't on the page now. -- Deborahjay 22:42, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
