Exhibit A
over 3 years ago

Great to have this positive coverage in the Guardian but do others find it very disturbing that a national newspaper is using the puzzle piece to depict autistic people?

    The symbol is known as an autistic symbol. I know people who when diagnosed have tattooed at puzzle piece on their arm. I personally prefer the rainbow spectrum icons because they descrpt thespectrum more. 

    Thanks for the article I will have a read of it.
