The odd decision of David Haye
The boxer David Haye decided to RT a "joke" with the word 'spastics'. He deleted it but RT'd the content in a tweet suggesting people get the phrase "wetter than a 'spastics' chin" trending. There is a documented rise in hate crime and verbal abuse of disabled people. So I created my own.
