I can't believe the comments about this boy. Does no one have any compassion or sense of forgiveness or understanding?

Look, what he did requires a certain amount of knowledge and you don't develop the kind of code that he did by 'accident' he was well aware of what he was doing, mentally disabled or not.if the police have enough evidence to take him into court, chances are he was a very naughty boy. I am sure that your 'Jesus' would NOT approve.
Yes, It is indeed very obvious that the Brad above is a "very uninformed boy" when it comes to Asperger's.

The "rock" in Brad's eye is his inability to even consider that someone else may be different than he is....
