Little People of America (LPA) called Walton’s use of the term “m—-t” on the mic “deplorable and inexcusable” in a statement to TMZ on Friday.

“Those who use the term midget or any terminology that further stigmatizes people born with dwarfism are asked to educate themselves to eradicate this word,” LPA officials said.

The organization also demanded an apology from the former All-Star center.

“Little People of America is asking Bill Walton to issue an apology and vow to use appropriate terminology rooted in respect and dignity going forward.”

LPA also implored they hope Pasch “will speak up against disparaging language in solidarity with our organization fighting for disability equity and justice.”

This is funnier if you do a find and replace and change little people of America to the lollipop guild
