I'm not saying what he did is right, nor am I making excuses for the actions... Just saying perhaps there is an underlying cause for those said actions. I know myself, I won't speak for others, but i know I take certain things for granted...and often I dont' stop to think what I would be like without those things.... People with some conditions can be very bright in some areas, while severely disabled in others... And how each deals with those things makes then either succeed or fail.. For example... a blind person.... Usually, a person who cannot see, has a more accute sense of hearing and sometimes touch...as well as the other senses.... If that person chose to ignore all those other senses while in a depression over their condition, they would surely suffer... If however they chose to become more in tune with those other senses, they would do much better. This guy I know...with the AS.... He's really sweet once ya sit and talk to him...has the same feelings and the same emotions as we all do, although he has a harder time controlling them...He's considered disabled by the state in which he lives, but is very bright... He has a near photographic memory with things he reads...and sometimes conversations can be difficult...I am glad that I took the time to learn more about him... Now instead of being offended by something said, i look at why it's being said....usually is something that happened with another person that has him in a fluster, that inhibits his limited ability to control what is being said... Perhaps all it took was a comment for his self control to waiver... I'm not saying don't comment, I'm not teling anyone what to door not to do, nor am I expecting anyone to actually read my drivel... What "I" would do, rather then making a comment such as on the boat picture, that says, (making up a comment) "this image really dont' deserve to be in the hot 20, it's imported models on a basic beginner scene" I would say something very similar that i would give to an excellent piece of work by a "well known" more along the lines of, "this is a good start, i bet it would look fantastic with some plants here, or some birds there... maybe even a few more boats" but then again, I have been called nieve many a times... and have been proven to be quite the odd one many times as well... so take this for what you will....a rant, a rave, a story, a lesson, a pile of garbage... or just my thoughts...
