Yeah, there is a difference between someone stuttering and someone *being* a stutterer. This guy is not a stutterer, he is actual a very fluent speaker--therefore it makes sense that the anomaly of sudden disfluency would gain speculation. When an able-bodied person begins stumbling around, we speculate on the state of their sobriety, for example. Would you find this offensive to disabled persons? Or someone who is usually fluent but suddenly has slurred speech. I don't feel much toward it, except for a growing frustration that society in general lacks a distinction between fluent speakers who stutter occasionally and someone who has a physical motor control issue so bad that they can rarely actually express themselves. Worlds of difference between us. I do understand the knee-jerk reaction you feel, however.
