A Letter That Will Make You Feel Uncomfortable at Best
A family is in shock and a community has united after an anonymous hate letter was written about a young boy living with severe autism.
Karla Begley told CityNews her son Max, 13, stays with his grandmother in the morning during the summer time. It was at that home in Newcastle where letter was delivered on Friday. “I was shaking when I was reading it,” Brenda Millson, Max’s grandmother, told CityNews. “It’s awful words. You don’t know why somebody would ever do such a thing.” The typed, one-page letter refers to the young boy as a “nuisance” and a “wild animal” before suggesting the family move or “euthanize” the child. Begley says the police have been contacted and should they have grounds, charges will be filed against the letter’s author. http://www.citynews.ca/2013/08/18/fa...n-with-autism/ ![]() |

Silly linguistic lesson:
In Spanish it's either "vamos" or colloquial "vámonos" which means 'we go' or 'let's go." Now it has been borrowed and changed by English to match its funky spelling rules and I couldn't tell you all the different versions I've seen. But, back to the OP, sometimes you wonder who really has the problem. I'd...nah. Autism is a bitch. RainMaker p.s. pardon the lesson. It's just a stupid Cliff Clavin moment. |

"Self" isn't just the prejudice we have it's quickly becoming the only way we think...

The internet has empowered the true anonymous assholes to be bigger anonymous assholes in real life.

Damn, I bet that kid makes some funny sounds. Id just listen and laugh to myself or something. I certainly would understand the situation...PLENTY of other things in the White House, I mean world, to get upset about other than an autistic child making sounds outside...

I think everyone is overlooking the pink paper.
I mean, come on, that's like the universal sign of "I care but-..."

Man, it's hard to believe that someone would write something like that.
Even if you do find the kid to be a nuisance, which he very well might be and he probably shouldn't be running around the neighborhood hassling people (same with any other kid), why would you go to all this trouble just to hurt someone's feelings so deeply? Yeesh. |

I like how she couldn't put her name to it. If you have the balls to write a letter like this, stand up and name yourself. What a ****.
