If I were addicted to alcohol I would have a disability. I would be an American with a Disability. The ADA must apply to anyone with a disability.

Should I sue because curbs and steps can make me fall and hurt myself? Who are you to say no. Bar stools are too high and unstable. What next? The list could go on and on.

ADA is not just "the law of the land" it is common sense. That may not be apparent to some. But, then, common sense is VERY lacking nowadays.

Law without compassion, understanding, and common sense will lead to a society controlled by threat, punishment, and ultimately violence.


"The NFB and ACB alleged that the Kindle DX was inaccessible to blind students and thus violated federal law."

And paper books are not?


The Kindle-ADA lawsuits may sound like a win to some, but to me it brings a great sadness. Common sense is a dying ember.

When the self righteous, left or right, rule people suffer.

If you feel that YOU are right, anything is permitted. In Iran and other places the "self righteous" stone women and hang gays.

The ADA is not always right. Once, people had a right to own slaves. That too was the "law of the land.”

Now, let loose the callow youth....
