I have seen this before. So many people are just Autism or Autistic as insult on the internet. I don't like it at all but, they have a right to say it and you have a right to get offended by it I guess but, Words are just words. Don't give the word the power that they used. I've been calling myself ret*d since I knew what the word meant, because I am. :lol:

Now ... you just described this person as a "ret*d" and then got mad that someone says they "hate autistic people". Do you see where I'm going with this?

I always am like I'm a autistic and proud. When they say I'm ret*d I tend to point out their to dumb to think of a better response. Then I say at least they try unlike you who is stupid with no excuse.
