I say. the whole point for this bullying is to prevent people with these t-shirts to go around. You need some t-shirt corporation in order to do packs of these t-shirts, but nothing prevents individuals to take a t-shirt and write such message on it (well, lack of time or skill can prevent so, I know) so I say, get those t-shirts and show them.

Maybe WrongPlanet could sell some of those t-shirts. I know that I'd probably buy one and tell people about it if they asked. Of course, I'd buy it even if WP didn't sell it. However, I think that the t-shirt could get out to more people on the autistic spectrum if it were sold on WP. Anyways, I think that some of the things that Autism Speaks does is ridiculous, not to mention hypocritical. Maybe it was meant to be named "Autism Speaks Against Autism" or something like that, but somehow it got cut off lol.

| That is too bad that you gave in Zach but I am not surprised. Hopefully, you are willing to at least give the rights to the shirt to someone like Alex who has the resources to fight their bullying tactics. |

That page has nothing to do with this story, thus your spamming and should be eaten alive and shat on.

Well that is just not cool at all.  |
"...This is not a legal misunderstanding on the part of Autism Speaks. This is a calculated move designed to intimidate someone to not practice their rights under US Constitution and law......" This happens because most people do not know their rights and responsibilities concerning free speech. The ability and the right to communicate are things none of us should take for granted.

Get white T-shirts and draw on what the original shirts said with fabric markers.
They can't sue us all.

Neither MikeH106 or Sophist are spammers.
