People are sensitive. Common words that are used to describe people have suddenly been given a new, underlying meaning of 'you are lesser'. Oftentimes it's not the word itself, but the tone in which it's said. Take 'minor' for example. A minor would perceive that label as offensive if you said it to debunk his/her argument. A minor would engage in a conversation of being unable to drive with the reasoning - "I'm not old enough yet." You could see words as positive or negative only when someone comes along and uses it. Fat used to be adjective, but somehow in today's day and age - or when you got older - it's now a dirty word.
So when you say someone is handicapped, according to today's logic, you're telling them they're imperfect. And that's a bad thing.

At the time, it seemed like an unnecessary variation on the “gangster” trope that dominated West Coast rap at the time.

The one-child per family policy
Explanation:
To contain its surging population which rose to over a billion, the Chinese government issued the one-child per family policy in 1979. This policy required that every Chinese family would apply for a family planning certificate once the wife became pregnant for the first child.
This policy was effective in curbing the overgrowing population, however, this resulted in a labor force that lacked youths and a population that had more of aged people. In 2016, the Chinese government revoked this policy, thus allowing families to have up to two children.
The rough, rugged and haunted Dallas fascinates Pony. Even before Pony becomes an ace storyteller, Dallas acts as his muse, or inspiration. Pony says,
I used to like to draw his picture when he was in a dangerous mood, for then, I could get his personality down in a few lines. (1.46)
Notice the "used to." This is some subtle foreshadowing. Pony no longer sketches Dally because Dally's already dead when Pony's writing. His death is one of his reasons Pony's writing this piece in the first place
