Disgusting, this isn't something to be happy about.
While I disagree about it being 'disgusting' there is nothing disgusting about the existence of people with autism....I would agree its not exactly something to be jumping for joy about, there are quite a few downsides to having the disorder after all.
This is what I think too.
Same here, but I do think it's pretty awesome that there's that many of us spectrumites here in the states.

maybe but the U.S is going downhill some ways which could make it harder for people with autism, not so much according to U.S news but look at the international stuff, things are not going that well here. And I have a cat knocking stuff off my desk, hopefully she doesnt spill my water.

I notice that OP makes a lot of threads like these; he acts as if he holds a position on something, but rather than saying why he feels that way, (or in this case, what his position even is) he awaits confirmation from others.
I honestly think it's for attention. And it certainly works. It sounds like something I might have done when I was younger.
...Though I believe I'm the only one who feels that way, and I might get attacked for this.

Well...
I don't see any mob attacking you.
In fact...the OP isnt even defending himself!
Gee....
Could it be that you're right?
Lol!

I do not understand your position. And for all those who who think 100% is great, no. 50-50 would be good.And I do not just try for attention.
