-- Trump's biggest sin
What is Trump's biggest sin? Today, there was a
Bloomberg poll on what bothered people about
Trump? It said that he once mocked a disabled
reporter. When his mocking went viral, Trump
denied making fun in the first place! If
Trump actually mocked the disabled, will he
also mock the deaf? Let voters decide! A

-- funny or not funny
An outspoken deaf-rights activist posted an
article on the AARP web site. It asked:
No Wheelchair Ramp for the Deaf
Not sure if the activist was trying to be
funny or trying to be sarcastic or just trying
to make a point? She mentioned, however, that
the deaf lawsuit vs Fedex has been going on
for years, years and years with no end result
in sight!
-- signing and driving at same time
Deaf people often sign while driving.
Is it safe? A deaf driver, talking to his
deaf passenger, hit a person walking the
dog at an intersection in Framingham, MA.
The driver admitted he took his eyes off
the road while driving. Driving while deaf
is not the same as driving while hearing!
At any rate, the police gave the deaf
driver a written warning. Lets' hope the
hearing person will not file a civil
lawsuit on basis of negligence while
driving!
