 This is something that bothers me so I decided I'd rant about it here.

I have family on my mother's side that I can trace back to the second landing at Jamestown. My father's side doesn't go back quite that far, but they do go back to the pre-Revolution. I have family on both sides such that I have relatives that fought in every major American conflict, including both sides of the Civil War. My nearest migrated relatives are seven generations back on both sides. I even have a marginal amount (like 1/152) of native blood in me. So, pray tell, does that not make me a 'native' American?

Well, it is discrimination. It wouldn't be considered racism as Autism isn't a race, is all.

I think they say that 'cause most kids will play with other kids regardless of skin color. I know Isaac doesn't care about what skin color his friends are, as long as they want to play superheroes with him. XD
