“There has been no doctor or diagnostician who has come forward and verified that Adam Lanza had been diagnosed with any disorder, neurological or otherwise.”

Of course not; that would be protected by HIPPA laws.

“By the way, there are people who are sensitive to noise who do not have Autism or Asperger’s Syndrome.”

Sure. But no one is saying his use of earplugs is evidence of Autism, just explained by his autism.

“Also, there are no cases of a person with Autism or Asperger’s who has committed a planned violent attack.”

I don’t know about that one way or the other; I personally doubt it is true. I don’t see why being autistic would insulate a person from being violent any more than any one else. Indeed, since they are often bullying victims, I would suspect that, as a group, they’d be marginally —— marginally -— more likely to lash out in some fashion.

How is it that ear plugs are explained by an undiagnosed disorder? How about the likelihood that the ear plugs were a planned item Adam used to aid against the reports of the weapon and/or screams of victims? Or, perhaps Lanza had not planned to end his own life as has been reported. It is possible his suicide was a spontaneous as opposed to thought out event.

No one has the answers to these questions or issues. Anyone who makes the assertion that Lanza used ear plugs BECAUSE of Autism is jumping to a conclusion that is not supported by any facts.
