So, some guy in Canada decides to “run for autism”. He invites some autistic folks, who politely decline. Mostly because the guy publicly spoke about how autism is a terrible burden and we must find a cure!!
The autistic folks explained they couldn’t support his run because of those statements, and what response do they get?
“Haha oh sh*t” (sent from a Blackberry).
That kids needs to learn how to use email. He obviously meant to forward that message, not reply to it. But it shows how much he knows about autism, and also how much he really cares about this cause.
This seems to be the kid’s media contact:
