I have to agree with Stella, though i am not one of the older members, the attitude in your posts reflect a violent tone i do not concur with, you should calm down, and get your mind off of things.
I can not believe they are using the fact he was a loner and was anxious and had Aspergers i am not normally bothered about things like this but it was the same about a rape on crime watch though they did say it was not the AS unlike the newspaper. I suffer from being anxious i left school early but not because of being anxious  does that mean i will get a bat and bash some kid to death. Smith, of Leigh, Greater Manchester, suffered from Asperger syndrome, an autism-like disorder which can lead to eccentric behavior, relationship difficulties, and communication problems. The fact i live five minutes down the road which is the next town is quite bad. People round here tend to be naive and papers demonizing Aspires does not help people who suffer from it locally at all.
Also, at one stage somebody said they thought murderer, Geoffrey Dahmer, could have had Aspergers. Not only do I seriously doubt that he did, linking him with Aspergers gives the rest of us a bad name.
Well, Aspies can be low-life scum, just like anyone.

He's not going to have a good time in prison, though, I can tell that already.

F****** Hell ( I'm sorry for this but) Question Time ( UK Politic Show) is on and though only about a 30 sec mention someone  mentioned the lad smith and that there should be back ground checks or something on people with mental health ( well something like that rollseyes)
Much of the problem can be attributed to the fact that people with mental illnesses are released from care back into the community with little done to ensure that there is somebody to look after them. Also, it is often really difficulty to get help when somebody shows signs of mental illness because there is not enough funding put into the mental health system.
