As someone with depression and autism (2/3 ain’t bad) — totally no excuse for being violent and racist like that. Whenever stuff pops up like this I like to remind people that you can have a disability or disorder and still be a brat or an asshole. They’re definitely not mutually exclusive.

Yup. I’ve had plenty of high functioning students, and never once have they resorted to any kind of violence. Usually they’re the sweetest kids in the class 

I’ve known kids with autism, I’ve known kids with bi-polar syndrome. None of them would act like this. Yes, they can be disruptive, sometimes they’re acting out, sometimes they’re not. But they (like everyone else) only get violent when pushed too far. This girl wasn’t pushed. Look at how perfectly the video was shot.…

As an autistic woman who was once an undiagnosed autistic girl, being autistic doesn’t make you say racist shit like that out of the blue.

I’m autistic too and I never slapped a teacher, and MUCH less for the reason of her being Black. This kid is clearly old enough and has enough cultural understanding to weaponize racism. She is therefore fit to be severely punished for this. Perhaps she does need special ed classes and wasn’t getting the help she…

I’m used to seeing weird nerds come out for people like Elon Musk but it’s crazy to see them come out for North Korea.

Ms. Evans, your child’s behavior is your responsibility first & foremost; the school has programs to help, but you can’t throw up your hands & act like that child came from a vacuum. ‘Throw racial slang’ is a phrase I’ve never heard in conversation. If you don’t think your family hears racist anger & aggression directe…

“I know I don’t throw racial slangs ever,” she said. “I know none of my family members that live in the house with me throw racial slangs ever.”

Teachers have to endure this racial violence in the classroom but can no longer talk about racial injustice in those same spaces.

While there is a lot of theft at construction sites, it’s still way overboard to chase down and shoot anyone you see leaving one. It says a lot about these overzealous racist entitled fucks that they filmed the whole thing and turned the video in thinking it would exonerate them. I’m sure they probably still think of…

Let’s see them get sentenced to something more than “time served.”

Emmett Till’s mother never got to see anyone punished for his murder and torture. Arbery’s mother gets to see the fuckers behind bars. As it should be. Next up, remove all the laws (like citizen’s arrest) and institutional privileges that allow white men to act as judge, jury and executioner in this country. So that p…

I’m just shocked that white men were convicted in Georgia.

Yeah, we did this as teens all the time. It was the 90s and we were basically the human equivalent of free-range chickens. There were three different developments being built around ours, and we would walk through the in-progress houses regularly. I think that about every time Ahmaud Arbery’s case was back in the…

Exactly.  Batting :500 is not good in these scenarios.  All 4 should be shitting themselves behind bars.  Unfortunately, one is free and even meeting with the former President.  Not shocking...they’re both racists.  

finally something approaching justice in this racist garbage country. i’d rather all three just be taken outside and hung or shot, or both.

We gotta start teaching “it’s okay to not say anything if you have nothing of value to say” in schools or something.

“I haven’t watched the thing but I did skim it”

Found the tankie.

You are trying to make sense of dictatorship?
