How do you feel when you see institutional instances of discrimination, like when a parent kills an autistic kid and people are saying "well the parent was suffering I don't blame them"?
Depends. With me you wouldn't have known when I was a small child unless you know what to look for. So the reality that most of the ones that get killed off never really have a hope of being anything more then a screaming two year old for their existence. Therefore I can see why some parents are so hurt by this, but to just kill your child? That's a act of a monster.
So no the parents suffering is not justification for murder. The real institutional discrimination is in the schools. Many teachers are stupid, bigoted, and set in their ways. Even worse is that what little funding there is to help learning disabled and disabled kids often goes to the kids munching on the crayons while going to a glorified daycare.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
