Portland, OR had the Autism Speaks walks in the park along 9th and Salmon street on September 26th 2009 and our local ASAN group went there and stood at the corner and held up signs protesting. Autism Speaks made a video about Autism going "I am Autism and I will ruin your marriage and take your child." I am in this news clip and I am the girl in the pink t-shirt with glasses and I am holding up the sign wearing a pink head band and I do look down at the ground.

I personally found it hilarious.
