-- a robber faces deaf father and deaf son Deaf father Steve, Sr, and deaf son Steve, Jr, were inside a Parma, Ohio gas station, making a purchase and visiting their friend, the owner. A robber walked into the gas station and shot the owner dead, and pointed the gun at the father and the son. Both men fought back and overcame the robber, knocking the gun out of his hands. The police came and arrested the robber. They were interviewed by the local media. What was the last name of Steve, Sr and Steve, Jr? They refused to reveal their last names. for a father and son picture: http://deafdigest.com/deaf-father-steve-sr-and-deaf-son-steve-jr/   -- filing a lawsuit against a rude New Jersey judge A deaf driver, stopped by the police and given summons, told the clerk at the municipal court that he is deaf and needed an interpreter. He was told an interpreter will be there for him. Yet, the interpreter never showed up. He then told the judge that he was deaf and needed an interpreter. The judge felt the deaf man was faking his deafness, and instructed him to just plead guilty or not guilty. The deaf man refused to plead anything without understanding what these were all about. The angry judge screamed at him, saying "That's a lie! You can hear me!" Even when the deaf man showed him his hearing aid, the judge still felt his deafness was a fake act. He forced the deaf man to take the stand, without an interpreter. And while his traffic charges were dismissed, the deaf man felt humiliated - hence this lawsuit!     -- best Mac tutors are deaf tutors People buy Macs and often need assistance while using that laptop.
