Couldn't find the 5x number, but they're still much more likely to be bullied. Kids with Asperger's are even more likely than those further down the autism spectrum.

It's the nature of the syndrome. Kids with A.S. don't present autism as clearly. Instead, they appear as stand-offish, mean, rude, weird, and a whole host of other "bad" social qualities. Asperger's sucks, because it may take a long time before even the parents realize what's wrong with the kid. In fact, I would venture to guess that this "bully" (read: psychopath) had and has no idea what the hell Asperger's is. Blake was just a weird kid and the "bully" was having a bad day.
Absolute tragedy, frankly.
