Reducing suicide deaths in autistics who the police prosecute

DaveAsperg
over 3 years ago

Autistic people may be very intelligent and have an unusual focus of interest, which may involve computers, but this may not be understood by the police who may look to prosecute them for doing things which they never thought were criminal. It’s all to do with theory of mind (ToM), as we think differently, have different motives and are easy prey for the police, who can make our innocent actions sound criminal, even though we are unaware we have done anything wrong. 
We have a 10 times rate of suicide compared to neurotypicals and if convicted for innocent intentions , this will probably increase the suicide rate much more. 
We hate injustice for anyone and will fight hard to avoid it

So my theory is that inappropriate prosecution of autistic people often has a fatal outcome. Many of the Autistic spectrum people in prison  are not only there inappropriately but have an extremely high suicide rate and the police should be aware of the harm they may be doing.

This has never been researched. I feel authorities may not want the results.

I’m looking for help to start this research, but getting nowhere. 

any comments? Do you hate injustice more than most others?

    I am so incensed at how our police force works, that I have developed a strategy of wasting their time and taking the piss at every single opportunity I get.

    I managed to corner a senior police officer once who was buying some computer stuff off me and I put it to him that there are now THREE main societal groups, the police, the criminals, and US THE VICTIMS OF BOTH OF YOU!! HE mumbled some tosh about "government guidelines" being the problem before escaping...

    The key when being hassled by an aggressive type of policeman is to keep your eyes on the *** at all times, Thinking how much you'd like to rip his arm off and beat him to death with the stump, whilst saying the most compliant things, whilst keeping eye contact as much as possible.  Yeah, we don't like doing eye contact do we? Trust me, my type of eye contact, makes 'em really uneasy and keen to escape, after quite a short time. Oh, and make sure you have some inane & harmless questions in the hopper.

    It's the master who asks the questions, so you want to be asking the questions, as much as you can. Again,it puts 'em off balance and makes them want to go seek the easier meat afer about 10 minutes of being quizzed. 

    But you HAVE to be NICE AND COMPLIANT throughout, in order to keep the upper hand. As soon as it gets confrontational, they have ALL the advantages. After all it's the main thing that they DO. Confront the public, and wherever possible convert them into some sort of criminal.
