Vulnerable person?

Is this the new PC term for retarded person? I read a local story that sounded an awful lot like it was about a retarded person yet they kept referring to them as vulnerable. Are they retarded when they manage to stay at work and then vulnerable when they somehow wander off?

Anyway, my rant for today is about how I remember when gas was <$1 a gallon.

It's usually "vulnerable adult". Used a lot with retards but it's actually a little different. It's a classification by the state that gives a person different rights and liabilities.
