Our union attorney was married to a shrink....we used to say that she married one of her patients!....but after a particularly rough session with this guy he went home and discussed him with his wife. She said "he's got Aspergers Syndrome" and sent him to a web site. He later forwarded that site to us and it described this guy perfectly. It also indicated that there was no cure and only intensive therapy while the victim was still young had shown any success. He had not getten that therapy.
Yeah, well, as Christian Weston Chandler has shown us (ALL HOPE ABANDON YE WHO ENTER HERE), being on the Autistic Spectrum is no excuse for being a terrible human being. For instance, I'm on the Autistic Spectrum (specifically, I have Hyperlexia, professionally diagnosed) and I don't act like a Neo-Nazi like that guy you described did, and people tend not to notice that I have a disorder until I tell them.
