A family is in shock and a community has united after an anonymous hate letter was written about a young boy living with severe autism.
Karla Begley told CityNews her son Max, 13, stays with his grandmother in the morning during the summer time. It was at that home in Newcastle where letter was delivered on Friday.
“I was shaking when I was reading it,” Brenda Millson, Max’s grandmother, told CityNews. “It’s awful words. You don’t know why somebody would ever do such a thing.”
The typed, one-page letter refers to the young boy as a “nuisance” and a “wild animal” before suggesting the family move or “euthanize” the child.
Begley says the police have been contacted and should they have grounds, charges will be filed against the letter’s author.
pro-abortion advocates strike again
The Letter “I also live in this neighborhood and have a problem,” the writer stated in the one page letter that was received on Friday. “You selfishly put your kid outside everyday and let him be a [sic] nothing but a nuisance and a problem to everyone else with that noise polluting whaling [sic] he constantly makes!!!”
“That noise he makes when he is outside is DREADFUL!!!!!!!!!! It scares the hell out of my normal children!!!!!!!” it says.
“When you feel your idiot kid needs fresh air, take him to our park you dope,” the letter reads.
Calling the boy a “hinderance to everyone” the letter writer states that “no employer will hire him, no normal girl is going to marry/love him and you are not going to live forever”.
“Personally, they should take whatever non retarded body parts he possesses and donate them to science,” the letter said. “What the hell else good is he to anyone!!!”
“You had a retarded kid, deal with it…properly!!!!! What right do you have to do this to hard working people!!!!!!! I HATE people like you who believe, just because you have a special needs kid, you are entitled to special treatment!!!”
The letter ends by asking the mother to move or have her child terminated.
“Do everyone in our community huge a [sic] favor and MOVE!!!!”
“Go live in a trailer in the woods or something with your wild animal kid!!! Nobody wants you living here and they don’t have the guts to tell you!!!!!”
“Do the right thing and move or euthanize him!!! Either way, we are ALL better off!!!”
The letter is signed: “One pissed off mother”.
That sounds like some “normal” kids I know!!
Can I be first to say “written by a Obama voter”.
Can’t this was CanaDUH!
more words of wisdom from the ever compassionate left...
That’s not a ‘typed’ letter. Maybe we should ping Dan Rather on this as he knows a bit about such things.
Shiite! I hate when I comment without reading close enough! Okay can I be first to say if they could, they would be a Obama voter?
Yes, this is about abortion. The left really wants babies like this to be aborted.
More than likely if they were in the USA, YES they would vote for Obozo!!!
Anonymous letters are not even worth the paper they are printed upon. If the author cannot sign this putrid missive, then let us hope that that putative person’s reward equals their worth!
we had an autistic kid living next door to us for awhile. yes, he got disturbed sometimes and wailed in the night. He was tormented by things the rest of us don’t think twice about. But he was a really nice, and gifted, kid who meant no harm to anyone.
This world needs more compassion.
That letter is not typed; it is printed. As a result, it will have microprinting included in the printed page which will identify the exact printer used to produce the letter.

Autism has become an epidemic. I don’t know what is going on but it is costing us a fortune. The parents get money for a kid being autistic....can you believe it? I wonder if it was a tax payer who sent the letter. I think the family should have let it alone because now someday when the kid can read (if he is that advanced) he will read it. No need to upset the kid over it.
The kid is 13. If he can’t read by now he never will. I have a feeling this is the most his brain will ever develop with autism.
I don’t know....but this is so over the top, could it be a hoax?
There were reasons that states had state sponsored homes for the developmentally delayed. Sometimes families could not care for them, several suicides of autistic teens and their parents recently in our area, or the families are targets in the community.
Those homes were kindnesses and compassionate.
And if the printer was purchased used or with an undocumented chain of ownership the steganography is not useful (unless a search warrant were obtained and the pattern tested for match.
