-- a crazy act by deaf during a softball game
Deaf people tend to tap on the shoulders of
other deaf people to get attention. Deaf
people should never tap on the shoulders of
hearing people - because it is considered
assault and battery. Anyway, a deaf person
tried to get the attention of a hearing
umpire during a softball game and tapped
on his shoulder. Naturally the hearing
umpire physically hit back the deaf player!
-- free in France, not free in USA
If deaf French people have problems
such as not getting government checks
or not being able to enroll a deaf
child in a school program, etc,
then legal assistance is free (for
the and the disabled). In USA, often
not free; there are some legal aid
services that are free but not easy
to get help. Too many clients and too
few legal aid attorneys - different
in France!
