Why should Kanner syndrome be cured? Even if there were good arguments for curing Kanners, it wont just be that. Cures and prevention will impact ALL of us on the autism spectrum, not just the "low functioning" people with Kanners. By the way, Dr.Temple Grandin has Kanners. According to Dr.Grandin, if Nicola Tesla were around today, he would be diagnosed with Autism, not Aspergers. So some of these "extreme cases", go on to do great things, like inventing the AC electricity.

That is funny, because of all the professional psychologists whom autistic adults believe to know their butt from their ear about autism, not one supports the mercury theory. Not a single one.But we find this is typical of ignorant normie Americans. Everyone is wrong except them, even when that everyone else happens to include a large number of people who have studied the question at great degree-earning length.

Let us not forget the mercury theory pushers have worked it all backwards. They offer us NO proof of their theories, they have NO controlled studies, and they have NO credible experts willing to testify on their behalf. In fact the people who do work WITH the autistic in order to further understanding denounce the mercury theory as junk science.But curebies will bend over to pretend it is credible experts like Tony Attwood who have it all wrong, simply because Attwood will not back them up.

You obviously have never been that child. As someone who has, I can tell you that actions do indeed speak louder than words. And Hillary's actions, in publically endorsing a terrorist organisation that explicitly states its goal to be the genocide of those like me, are reprehensible. She is no better than the teacher who told my then friends "keep away from him, there's something wrong with him" when I was a boy. The key, so to speak is different, but the tune is identical.

When your boy gets to be my age, he is going to hold posts like this one up in your face and ask you why you rejected him. I hope you have a better answer prepared than the sort my parents have so far come up with.

If you are thinking of supporting these people, then think about the following: if Diabetes America were to act so contrary to the interests and desires of diabetic adults, they would be stripped of their charitable status and disbanded. Yet Autism Speaks and apparently this "national Autistic society" are allowed to act in complete contravention of the will of the people they claim to represent without so much as reprimand. And you are surprised by our hostility to Hillary?

What the negationist curebies do not seem to understand either is that every autistic adult who is speaking out against the curebie movement was a child once, themselves. I think I trust my own judgement regarding what is best for any son or nephew of mine a lot better than some idiot who thinks we the knowledge of an autistic adult does not count simply because they do not appear to be profoundly disabled.

I was going to vote for Hillary until she decided I needed to be prevented right along with my kids or "Cured" from being me. Well the only thing she "cured" me from was from voting for her.

it will be smarter for her to launch an attack on mercury
