I wonder what percentage of criminals are retarded. I mean literally, with IQs below the threshold for mental retardation, which the American Association on Mental Deficiency defined as "less than 85" in 1959 (they were later pressured to dispense with that definition).

I bet it wouldn't be too far off to assume that maybe 80% of the prison population of the United States is literally retarded, by that standard.
