Woman Attacks Her Autistic Children With Deadly Force.

http://home.myhughesnet.com/news/read.php?ps=1018&rip_id=%3CD9H3PCDO0%40news.ap.org%3E&_LT=HOME_LARSDCCLM_UNEWS This is yet another instance of intolerance of neuro-diversity. Certain ignorant people tend to think of autists as being less than human; because a number of us seem to them to be in our own world. Now I have charecteristics of Asperger syndrome; so I'm what's known as high functioning. Therefore it's not as apparant that I'm even on the autistic spectrum. I'm not really what one thinks of when they think of autism. But I feel that all indivisuals should have the right to live, and be treated with dignity, no matter there level of functioning. We all have something unique to offer the world, if given the chance. Now these two young children will never get the chance to live, love, and pursue happiness; all because of there mother's shallow selfishness. She felt that she should have the power of life and death over them; and that her life was more important than there's.
