Yo dawg...

Heidi Crowter is a British Down syndrome girl who as a child, a long, long time age, became an Advice dog meme. People looked at her jiggling derpy mass of a face and laughed whole heartily at the usual caption placed beside her dilapidated mug which read "I can count to potato."

The Internet masses lol'd for a brief nano-second before returning to their furious masturbating. Fast forward roughly three billion Internet years to the present, where this image macro has been re-posted ad infinitum, the young girl's disproportioned front-face now burned into the retina of every memefag that has spread it throughout the interbutts, and some drama has suddenly been aroused.

Heidi, now a chubby tween, was shown the image by her mother after she stumbled across it and immediately decided it was her despite the fact that all Down syndrome people look the same. Suffice to say, both Heidi and her mother were shocked and apalled.

	“	Until yesterday Heidi had been shielded from the truth about the trollers, but with the parents trying to get wider support to have the pages taken off Facebook, they felt they couldn't keep it a secret any longer.	„
	—BBC, on why the parents trolled their own child by showing her the images

Some enterprising troll managed to hack Heidi's Facebook account.

Heidi is troubled by the discovery that her image is being used in a spin-off of Advice Dog.

What Mrs Crowter fails to realize, however, is that the 'Retard Girl' meme was never intended to be a direct attack on her daughter to begin with. It wasn't an act of calculated, malicious trolling designed to upset Heidi Crowter - some newfag wanting to make a new Advice Dog spinoff just happened to use the first picture of a Down syndrome child they could find on Google Images. Furthermore, by going crying to the old media about 'vile, evil trolls' and demanding that the Internet be censored, she has actually brought more attention to the meme that so upset her in the first place - nobody really cared, until this happened.

Who Is Responsible?

The culprit behind this vile and disgusting hate campaign has since been identified as a 9gag user, Jimmy Rustles. We here at ED would urge the citizens of the Internet to be extra vigilant and do everything in their power to bring this scurrilous e-bully to justice. Jimmy Rustles must be punished.
