As someone with autism I have been called retarded before and honestly it does not offend me. The word isn't even used in the field of psychology anymore and it's because they found a better term for people with down syndrome or other mental disorders. The word has no definition anymore and is used to call someone who's being an idiot rather than someone who has a mental disorder. I do believe that the "R" word should be allowed to be said since it literally has no definition (or power) unlike other words that are banned.
