I disagree. Special Olympics encourages those with disabilites a place to compete with pride among others that are just like themselves. It's almost their own culture, a place to feel comfortable, at home, and to really give it their all.
I think you might have a different perspective because you're blind. There's nothing wrong with you, only difference is you don't see well. Many people at Special Olympics are struggling with tougher diseases.
