Jesus should not cure deaf man but instead Jesus should had proclaim to the world, "This deaf man can do anything but hear!!, He is not retarded!!! He is not deformed!!! blah.." But no Jesus decided to let it slide so that deaf people have to go suffer many years of oppressions. (substitute 'deaf' with other races or homosexuality, you ll get my point.)

You're jumping to the conclusions.
Let me show you the bible verses.
(Mark 7:31) "Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis."
(Mark 7:32) "There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged him to place his hand on the man."
(Mark 7: 33) "After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man's ears. Then he spit and touched the man's tongue."
(Mark 7:34" He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him, "Ephphatha!" (which means, "Be opened!" )."
(Mark: 7:35 "At this, the man's ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly."
(Mark: 7:36) "Jesus commanded them not to tell anyone. But the more he did so, the more they kept talking about it."
(Mark: 7 :37) "People were overwhelmed with amazement. "He has done everything well," they said. "He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak."
It's not because Jesus thinks there is something wrong with deaf people, He helps anyone who seeks for help.
