Martin is probably autistic, and the way this whole thing was handled was disastrous. No wonder why he felt like he only had two options. And the way people are commenting on this makes me think we haven't seen our last mass shooting, because they are creating the environment for the next one.


Where is the evidence that he’s autistic? That he got bullied? That’s hardly evidence.


It's a gut feeling. The notion of feeling different everywhere he went, being called the "Big Weirdo", taking threats from Richie Incognito literally. I can't think of any other reason.
