Aspies For Freedom

They just had to mention his AS, now didn't they...

Here's the article:

Thank goodness he's not in the US... we'd be going nuts about this...  I can see the headlines already, "One autistic 'blows up' over explosives"  or something equally nonsensical...

  Though the article is somewhat patronizing, at least they emphasize that he wasn't out to get anyone...

well we are if you'll excuse this officially B!*?@#$£

why did the have to mention he had aspergers why why WHY!!!!!

hopefully people won't think that all of us know how to make a bomb

*minimises interent window for instructions on making a bomb*

No, he's here.

Although maybe Briatin will be sensible over this, even if they're paranoid and fascist over obesity/binge drinking etc.

What a bunch of bitches!

I think that the individual concerned should take up a sensible hobby, like  health and fitness and making and save tons of money.

Oh, and there is always Narcotics Unanimous...

that was you?

Seriously?

bad Lestat *slaps wrist*

The bozos would have tricked him anyway...

Here's again the problem with a DSM-IV or W.H.O. label for Asperger's. Everyone from Lisa Nowak {astronaut} to the kid down the street shooting off bottle rockets has been assessed by a forensic psychologist on advice from his lawyer and thus has a mystery "illness.

With awareness and labelling comes, well, more labelling.

I have to admit that I didn't read the entire thread before posting. Why post this info?

Saint,the guy caught with explosives...was Lestat...

ah well,you know to be more careful next time...how the hell did they find you,anyway?

Gah! That could be my son in a few years. We are going to have to find a respectable way for the child to blow things up ....   *sigh*

Lestat - you take pride in being antiestablishment. Being antiestablishment is okay - but you are wasting your brains. My take (not that you asked for it) but anyway (open forum) - you need to find a better way to engage your brain and make use the talents you have. Show the idiots how smart you can be / are  - prove to them your worth - the way you are choosing at the moment isn't going to work - things will backfire. Good begets good - bad begets bad and anger begets more anger..... Things go in circles, hurt that goes around come right back - you need to break the cycle, no one else is going to do it for you.
my thoughts for what they are worth.

There are already enough idiots in the world - don't join them.

ah...makes more sense now...

I knew an NT who made bombes just for the fun of it as a ten year old.
