Hey we need to install a large industrial size vacume clearer on the Monterbus and drive by Autism Speaks /CAN headquaters vacume up some of the money they are con-ing people out of. So we can fund our military operations.

I'll buy Sephiroth's Masamune over the internet.

I'll also learn how to make poison gas. And I'll argue with them until their heads explode. And make them listen to Lacuna Coil and Nightwish turned up very loud until they go insane. And I will annoy them by speaking nothing but Sabam. Ra numa hikek nikitai! Zukik hitai.

"Johnny has an illness called Autism. He was pretending to be normal, but one of you let us know he wasn't. A very good student told me about how Johnny acted 'different', and was obssessed with computers. So now Johnny goes to a 'special' re-education school where he will be 'cured'. Isn't that nice when people with an ilness are cured??"

"Yes Teacher!!"


Especially if they even think they have something remotely resembling a "cure". Consider the other cures they have used in the past on people they considered mentaly ill or MR (or really just plain different).

War on the Government? Sure, we could pull it off. We'll need to dig up som dirt, toss a little money around to grab their attention. Meanwhile, we could plant some sympathizers inside CAN/Autism Speaks and disassemble them from the inside. With their funds under our control, we could arm ourselves (or disassemble some other companies/programs, if the need arises) to fight against them, targetting several key areas. Better yet, we could ignore the arms and run a campaign to overthrow the government. With enough support, there would be nothing they could do but admit defeat; after all, it is the American people's right to overthrow an unjust government.

The Army wouldn't be a problem, because they aren't permitted to attack civilians. It seems unlikely that the Air Force would bomb our own territory, so we don't have that to worry about; and we could probably take control of the police department. That leaves the Marines and the FBI. It'd be tough, so we'd have to save full-scale war as an absolute last resort. Starting a war with them would only create an excuse for them to wipe us out with impunity.

Because we're different. We DON't buy into the 'consume mass quantities' commercialism.

So we need to be CURED ! !

Well, at least we'll be herded into the boxcars with a smile on our faces, making jokes as they kick us with their standard issues.

Time to switch to decaf, man.

I'm kinda concerned by some of the tone here. I'm against the curebie mindset as a whole, but I think we should be most careful to not come across as being against all research.

The truth is that most of us are okay. I know that I would not wish to be "cured." And I am certainly against the concept of applying a cure at the first sniff of autism. But....

Let's suppose you've got a kid in fetus, and you KNOW that he's going to be extremely low-functioning autistic, who will never be able to care for himself. Assuming a cure existed, would anyone oppose curing him?

Now, let's suppose that you've got a kid in fetus and he MAY be LFA, or he may be the next Issac Newton. You've got your cure handy... but it can only be applied right now. If you wait to see which way it goes, it will be too late.

Not so easy, is it?

Fortunately, I agree with "parts"....

In the US we are headed for a major conflict on all the issues of genetic testing and who gets to know what. With the controversy surrounding abortion I don't think it will come to that if it does think of the strange allies we would have like the Catholic church and many republicans.


Politics makes for strange bedfellows, which is one of the reasons you'll see the ACLU jumping to defend the Catholics and the Republicans when the need arises. The notion of abortion as gene control would frighten a lot of people, and the political ads would write themselves.

"My name will be Holly. I will be born with a problem. I will have [insert disability here] but I will learn to live a full life, unless Mommy and Daddy kill me because I'm not perfect."

One political angle that will have to be considered... the backlash from the concept of using abortion as genetic cleansing will give much strength to the anti-abortion crowd. I'm pro-choice, but I think that if I were to have to choose between no abortions allowed and abortion used in such a manner, I'd have to think about it long and hard.

I've got a better idea. Someone tell them Iraq has WMD. They will send over 100,000's of soldiers, use up all available military resources, destroy their political credability, the administration will be in turmoil and then ....

wait on ... someone already did that :evil:

I agree with Catalyst's point of view. We were just having a little bit of fun is all.
