		<description><![CDATA[STOP VIRGINIA&#039;S ABUSE OF AUTISTIC TEENAGER! 
 
Reginald &quot;Neli&quot; Latson was racially profiled in May 2010 
and despite being frisked and found to be clean, the police action escalated  
and he was arrested and convicted for defending himself against them.   
 
SHOULD NELI BE PENALIZED FOR BEING AUTISTIC? 
 
After a full tortuous year of imprisonment, including months of stark and  
terrifying isolation, on May 31, 2011, the court demanded an ADDITIONAL year of his  
life, although they KNOW he is not a criminal! THIS NIGHTMARE MUST END! 
 
IS PRISON THE PLACE TO TREAT AUTISM? 
 
EACH DAY IN PRISON ROBS NELI OF HIS FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES.  
HE IS FEARFUL, CONFUSED, BULLIED, AND TRAUMATIZED.   
 
GOV. MCDONNELL, PARDON NELI LATSON AND FREE HIM NOW! 
 
PRESS CONFERENCE AND RALLY 
AUGUST 15, 2011 
12PM - 3PM 
Office of the Governor, Patrick Henry Building 
1111 East Broad Street - Richmond, Virginia  
 
 
TAKE A STAND FOR NELI AND IN DEFENSE OF OUR CHILDREN!

		<description><![CDATA[From: Cindy Earnshaw 
 
I have HFA and was severely abused by cops - but as a coworker, not a civilian citizen. I was one of the highest and best performers in my unit - every day, every year - but when I asked them - AGAIN - to stop the bullying I had to endure daily, they simply intensified it and moved it up the chain-of-command. 
 
I was mocked for having autism; I was purposely assigned humiliating positions that insulted my talents; I was punished and ordered to go home when I asserted my right of complaint via police department and city policy and federal ADA law; and they paid their contracted psychologist to write a report that (incoherently) blamed me for the bullying, and therefore as also &quot;unfit for duty.&quot; 
 
The list of abuses goes far beyond what I&#039;ve listed here. 
 
The City of Overland Park, Kansas, its governing body and its police department were all named in the federal ADA lawsuit I filed against them. 
 
The worst of it all? I have an audio recording of one of their own then-high ranking human resources people explaining to me what was happening and why: I was smarter and better than the corrupt cops for whom and with whom I had to work, but the city won&#039;t police its police - because it is easier for them to just let you file a lawsuit &quot;because they know you&#039;ll have to get a lawyer&quot; and - the implication was plain - what common person can afford a legal battle with the rich city of Overland Park, Kansas? 
 
Cops don&#039;t have to be good people - because there are other scoundrels throughout the department, the municipality, the EEOC, the &quot;helping professions&quot; and the courts, who will craft and provide subterfuge of any sort, at any time, for any crime, to cover the cops. 
 
Latson&#039;s case is a perfect example. The cop was blatantly INCOMPETENT handling the situation, and yet Latson - not the incompetent cop - is sitting in jail. 
 
How did that happen? It happened because people who know better let it happen anyway. 
 
Just because they can. 
 
It&#039;s called &quot;EVIL.&quot;  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[INJUSTICE in STAFFORD  
 
Attempted Murder  in Stafford equals ZERO jail time for white woman.  
  &lt;a href=&quot;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/052011/05242011/628482&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/052011/05...&lt;/a&gt; 
 
White woman KILLS someone with a DUI and got 10 years.  Same Judge that sentence my son gave her 8 months.   
  &lt;a href=&quot;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/022011/02232011/609076&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/022011/02...&lt;/a&gt; 
 
Impersonating a Police Officer  (He&#8217;s out on  BOND, WOW!!)  
  &lt;a href=&quot;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/052011/05102011/625370/index_html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/052011/05...&lt;/a&gt; 
 
Where was the school shutdowns and swat teams here.    &lt;a href=&quot;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/032011/03182011/1300459542fls&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/032011/03...&lt;/a&gt; 
 
 
Young Black Man Falsely Accused of Rape by a white girl.  After mom learns the truth, she goes to the courts, who fought against his release.  They refuse to remove him from the sex offender&#8217;s registry and wipe his record clean.

Hispanic woman DIES (this was within the last month) in the local jail where Neli is because they failed to listen to her regarding her lupus.  It was a case of mistaken identity and she tried to tell them so.  Within 24 hours she was dead and left behind 4 children.
