Default This really pisses me off

Recently, a family from Ontario received a hate letter in the mail to the mother of an autistic child. Not only as a person, but as someone who's had to deal with having autism my whole life and have gotten picked on for it when I was in grade school, this really grinds my gears. I really hope some kind of site is started to show support for this family and the asshole who sent this letter gets reprimanded for their offensive actions.

Here is the link to the story:

"whaling" (most interesting fuck-up of wailing I've ever seen)... "normal children"... "non retarded body parts"...

I don't even know anymore... what a fucking cunt. Her tubes should be tied faster than she can hold down shift + 1.

That is fucking ridiculous. I hope they find out whoever sent this letter. If anyone needs to scram, it's the person who wrote that letter.

Shouldn't efforts go towards finding the root of the issue and going from there?

Nah I prefer vicarious revenge

This is so incredibly fucked up, and I hope that the family whom received that letter didn't let it get to them.

Well, the news story says once this person is found (who sent the letter) charges will be pressed.

I guess whoever sent the letter will probably get what he wants. I probably couldn't tolerate obnoxious sounds like that because all sounds annoy me, but I'd probably move away myself first if there were no other options.

Canadians aren't possibly that rude.

Anyways that badly timed joke aside, sometime tie that woman's tubes with a rusty coat hanger.

Wow. This story really hurts me to the core. One of my closest friends is autistic. One of the nicest, most trustworthy, optimistic friends ever acquired. Whoever wrote this, is a very soulless, lifeless, miserable, disgusting, heartless mother fucker who I hope does get charged for something to do this to a family that has done nothing wrong at all but love and take care of their awesome and hearty kid. Some people, fuck. The writer of that letter deserves some prison time for this ridiculous hate at the least. That and get raped and assaulted while they're in there. What a spawn of a grotesque, unconscious, sociopathic, demonic, waste of a fucking carcass. Truly euthanization worthy, venom-blooded snot.

Still, damn. Nobody deserves to have that sort of bile spewed in their direction, not even the author of this tripe.

Ugh. What's with all the exclamation marks?

If only stupid people like the person who wrote this letter were capable of realizing how much stupider they are than whoever they are criticizing...

It's hurtful to see people do stuff like this. I do have a form of autism myself, and yes, I have done real stupid things in the past that would make people disappointed, but nobody should deserve to be bullied over something they cannot control. Honestly...yes, I have let people get the better of me, and somedays I would wonder why I exist in this world, but...I came to an opinion that most people can relate to. If you are being bullied, judged, or abused, then it's more than likely that 85% of the people are insecure or hurt themselves by various things in life that can deteriorate anybody.

I have been bullied for years about my actions, my looks, my clothes, etc...but at the end of the day, I was insecure with myself and I demanded that attention to me because I thought it would be okay to be the odd one out. The one important thing I have learned from living is that I shouldn't give two f***s about what anyone else thought about me. I should just be me...and not be a liar about myself.

Anyhow...I am glad to see that Max's community does support him. That alone shows how much people have evolved into being more accepting whenever someone is different.

I was very introverted in the past and some jerks in my school started to tell everyone that I had autism. It didn't bother me because I was being called an autist, but they were real asses about it and liked to mimic everything I did with an exaggerated and ridiculous mannerism. It didn't help that the main reason behind my introversion was the fact that I had a traumatizing beating by much older classmates in the previous school, when I was 12.

For me, the hardest part of living with autism isn't the symptoms. It's the judgemental pricks like the one that wrote this letter. I can't even count how many times I've seen and heard such derogatory comments. I know I should just ignore people like this and not let it get to me, but knowing that there's so many people out there just like One Pissed Off Mother that's getting pretty hard to do. Really now, telling the parent to euthanize the kid because "we are ALL better off!!!"? That's just downright vulgar.

I'm glad Max has gotten so much support and I really hope they find whoever wrote this.
