We don't want him, either. Maybe we need a new classification.

The biggest problem, at least from my perspective, is not his claim of autism. Maybe he has it, maybe he doesn't. As far as I know, he's never been evaluated.

The biggest problem is that he uses the claim of autism as a shield for his awful behavior.

Autism is not an 'get out of being an asshole for free' card because autism and being an asshole are totally unrelated.
