The member of a family purchased a vitamin water drink with a bottle cap bearing an offensive message. The family was shocked and offended, as one of the youngest family members has austism and cerebral palsy.

The Coca Cola company then apologized to the family for the offensive bottle cap -

If I ever got one of those, I'd just ignore it and throw it in the bin.

Autism is a social disorder involving chemicals in the brain, retardation is having a low I.q.

Cerebral palsy (CP) is an umbrella term denoting a group of non-progressive, non-contagious motor conditions that cause physical disability in human development, chiefly in the various areas of body movement.

Here's symptoms

Variations in muscle tone, such as being either too stiff or too floppy
Stiff muscles and exaggerated reflexes (spasticity)
Stiff muscles with normal reflexes (rigidity)
Lack of muscle coordination (ataxia)
Tremors or involuntary movements
Slow, writhing movements (athetosis)
Delays in reaching motor skills milestones, such as pushing up on arms, sitting up alone or crawling
Favoring one side of the body, such as reaching with only one hand or dragging a leg while crawling
Difficulty walking, such as walking on toes, a crouched gait, a scissors-like gait with knees crossing or a wide gait
Excessive drooling or problems with swallowing
Difficulty with sucking or eating
Delays in speech development or difficulty speaking
Difficulty with precise motions, such as picking up a crayon or spoon

If I were the parents, I would've just thrown it away after they were done drinking it. Their child may have mental and physical illness but in no way do autism and cerebral palsy have anything to do with retardation.

I don't know why you would get offended over a bottle cap from a bottle from a company from another company that knows nothing about you.

I personally would have laughed. That's like being offended when Walmart tags shorten "accessories" to "ass".

Also, did anyone consider that maybe this family made a big deal to also keep Coca Cola on their toes so it wouldn't happen to anyone else?

Pepsi used aborted fetus cells in testing for enhanced flavoring. In short? No brand is your friend.
