22. Would you please for the love of all things empirically provable

Wed May 28, 2014, 12:50 PM

May 2014

STOP: (1) armchair diagnosing this guy with Asperger's and/or BPD, (2) proclaiming that this alleged Asperger's and/or BPD was the underlying cause of his killing spree, and (3) describing in broad and entirely inaccurate brushstrokes what ALL people with Asperger's and/or BPD are like?

Also -- where'd you get your degree in mental health assessment and intervention? Because if you do in fact have one, I'd like to contact your alma mater and ask them to take it back.

Thank you.
