my rules
Does this count against the deaf, too? Because it's about time we made a move against them.
It infuriates me when I'm sitting on the bus or in a place of business and seeing these so-called "handicapped" people - they look normal enough to me - wagging their fingers and hands at each other. I mean, it's not even a real language, right? Wasn't it invented only like in 1979 or something? Handicapped, my ass. Special rights, I say: you know, at speeches or special events, sometimes someone'll stand in front of the stage and "translate," just in case there might be one of them in the audience? And that television programmers will caption their shows, just for them?
Can't speak the language without that funny, back-of-the-throat whale sound, or having to throw up your gang sign, Marlee Matlin? Assimilate or get out. Just get out, because last time I checked, the Founding Fathers talked the way everyone else in this country talks - out of their mouths.
