-- deafness not important to a federal agency
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is one
of the most important federal agencies. It protects
USA from health, safety and security threats. And
this agency does not care about the deaf? It
distributed a report about the disabled people
in USA. Not one word about this report mentions
deafness! So, are they saying we are not important?
-- water dumped on a person with hearing aid
At the Cache restaurantin Little Rock, Senator Ted Cruz
was eating with Governor Asa Hutchinson. Outside the
restaurant, a group of people were protesting Ted Cruz's
political beliefs. The angry restaurant employees,
wanting the protesters to go away, poured water on
them from the restaurant balcony. The water was dumped
on a deaf person that was wearing a hearing aid.
Fortunately the hearing aid was not damaged,
but the deaf person plans to file a police report.
