Death at School: Parents Protest Dangerous Discipline for Autistic, Disabled Kids
Kids Hurt, Killed by Restraints at School
Students with autism, special needs are suffocated, stuffed into bags.
"... high-school student _____________ was restrained face-down on a board before being shocked 31 times using skin shock therapy at the Judge Rotenberg Center in Massachusetts after refusing to take off his coat...."
My View:
What is the United States of America coming to? We are evolving into unconscionable beings with no morals or ethics. The world is really coming to an end when we hear that people can sleep at night after getting paid for a job that tortures disabled children and adults with autism for insignificant things.
I am writing this in my own state of rage over the video I just watched on ABC News about an Autistic boy screaming into a camera from the pain of being shocked 31 times by a form of electrocution. I find myself trying to not use the word God, as not to offend anyone who may disbelieve, but after viewing this torture, it was the most un-Godly thing I have ever seen in my life. And then to see this boy restrained, face down, spread eagle.....I am astonished beyond what could be imagined.
How could the State of Massachusetts allow this to occur? According to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massachusetts:
"Massachusetts has played a significant historical, cultural, and commercial role in American history"; "Harvard University, founded in 1636, is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States"; "Massachusetts has contributed many prominent politicians to national service, including members of the Adams family and of the Kennedy family.".............
So, how could such a revered State in the USA allow an Autistic child to be tortured like a terrorist? It can't be possible. But, seeing it with my own eyes on national TV makes my stomach turn. This is a total disgrace to humanity. We are evolving into emotionless Zombies who enjoy watching innocent victims suffer and scream in pain. This is no different than stories and film clips I have see of what Hitler did to the Jewish population. It is headed in that direction obviously.
I think the President of the United States should enact a law that prohibits the outright torture of innocent developmentally disabled children and adults with Autism or any incapacitating disability. Something has to be enacted immediately before we lose any more innocent victims to this madness that transcends this country.
And, because I have a son with severe Autism, who has been in Institutions, Crisis Centers, and Respite facilities for short periods of time (enough time for me to recover so I can resume my care of him), I wonder what hell he endured in many of these places. He was seriously abused in one of these facilities, but survived. Because he can not talk, he can not tell me his plight. Before I go to bed tonight, I will pray for all these poor victims who are so pure and innocent, and who do not deserve punishment for disability which impairs their senses and judgement to an incomprehensible degree. I just cherish the thought that this vulnerable population will go straight to Heaven and leave many to sweat it out in their own internal Hell on earth.
