re: Boy with Asperger's syndrome hospitalized after brutal school attack

It is what makes him different and as kids, all you need is something different to be picked on. When it is someone who can't defend themselves and likely has internal battles with what is the right and wrong reaction to things, the fact that the kid has Asperger's is pretty relevant.

The article suggests that the beating came from a kid who was bullying the victim's older brother. There is no suggestion anywhere that Asperger's (or ADHD) was a factor.
