Sociopath Community

Something reminded me recently of a kid I saw a few years ago when I took a semester at a community college. There was a very large, very low functioning mentally handicapped guy in my College algebra class. He was given unlimited time for exams and other special privileges so he could complete his work. He even had a chaperone that walked her around the first 2 weeks. He told people he wanted to go to Johns Hopkins and become an RN.

I'm sure people will disagree with me, but I don't think someone like this should be going to college for a career like that. He wasn't capable of doing even schoolwork on his own, he deffinately wouldn't be capable of taking care of other people. I only went to that CC for one semester so IDK what happened to him but I can't imagine someone who needs other people to tie his shoes possibly got into John's Hopkins.

The worst part of this senerio was everyone telling him how "great" it was for him to pursue his dream. That isnt great, this is a mentally disabled person investing thousands of dollars into a future they are incapable of obtaining. 

 It seems you are the retard for not understanding why he is allowed to study there. It's about sharing knowledge. College is not specifically made for the only ones who want to get a job because they are broke or just looking to learn so they can earn some money to pay for their miserable life. Anyone who wants to learn a skill should be allowed too. You are trying to censorship people from doing what they want for a better end, just because you have a different point of view. You are an idiot, and I would not even say you are a bad person, because reading your post I genuinely believe that's all you could conclude in your limited mind. That's why philosophy is good and should be mandatory throughout high school.

 It's best to steer people to learn things they can actually perform. You can't learn everything, so learn what actually relates to you.

 ^This. LET HIM LIVE HIS DREAM! LET HIM PUT HIMSELF $50,000IN DEBT TO PURSUE A JOB He is mentally incapable of performing.

A nurse needs to be ready to act in a moments notice and know what to do in a life or death situation. Any hospital hiring a person who needs somone guiding him step by step though everything he does, even tasks he's performed repeatedly, would be negligence and likely grounds to be sued.

No one wants an incompetent person in a field they shouldn't be in. 

Yet it still often happens. 

Businesses in some cases are made to work around these people if they can't straight up fire them. 

 "Okay so Nurse David, just sit in this chair for the next 15 hours until your shift is over and for the love of god- don't touch anything or anyone"

You can't suggest that they're incompetent either, that's a hostile work environment. 

 I'd like to imagine this senario took place his second week working there. First week: "Nurse david, please administer the patient's life saving medication."

"What is this. Which patient. How do I give someone a pill. Can you help me. I have absolutely no concept of what you are asking of me"

They'd have to have some idea if they passed their classes.

 Some idea isn't sufficient for life and death matters. 

This notion that we should suffer as a group to appease a minority is such "millennial thinking"
