Imagine you have a severely autistic friend who is amazing at math and can do complex equations in his head and you were with him competing in a math companion on local tv or maybe just in your high school the other kids knew you had as but you were a star football player and were in the honors program and he was in a special autistic class or maybe was in mainstream but rode the short bus. Before the competition you notice that some kids are bullying your friend and are attempting to break his acc device saying your a retared , he doesn't deserve to be in this competition ect saying really hurtful offensive things. and there where others who before ask gave him a problem to answer, praising him and then were laughing and talking behind is back.

You try to stand up him by mentioning your as but they counter by saying you just have as and are mild even if you do have some problems and your smart , he's just a autistic ret*d.

what would you do?

I would go to the judge of this competition, explain the situation, and demand that the opposing team be disqualified. I would further write the superintendent of the competing school district and demand these members be severely punished, if not expelled from school, thereby screwing up those persons chances of ever getting into a good college or university.

actually in this scenario the kids who are picking on him are part of your own team but I guess I could be interpreted either way.

What does that say about their intelligence if they feel threatened by an " autistic ret*d"?

Then this is a no-brainer. Go to the advisor sponsoring this team and report to him or her what is happening. If you don't get any satisfaction, go to the principal or the dean of students, and explain the situation. If nothing happens at this step, go to the district superintendant. Still no response. Go to the School Board and Lodge a Complaint. If the Board doesn't do anything, go to the state department of Education and file a complaint against the School District.

You should make atleast 3 difrent peaple aware of the siduation. If you only get help from only one person they most likely not be able to help. If you have you have diffrent people the chance of one o them being able to help. If my friend was really in that siduaftionine I would find something hard and heavy and bust it over there head (I wouldn't recomend doing that, it would be followed by truble).
