Hypocrisy in Six Flags' Deaf Awareness Day?

[kokonut]

Well, I have say toobad, life isn't fair.

If you attend the shows and don't understand about sign language then ask staff to provide a paper and pen to write for you, that's simple.

This is not about me. It's about communication access for all non-signers and signers alike. It's about the opportunity for a win-win scenario for Six Flags.

Six Flags Magic Mountain isn't alone, so is Six Flags Over Georgia don't have any alternative for deaf people whoever don't know about sign language.

you know that make me annoyed? it is when some people think deaf people should not use ASL on TV because it give people the idea that deaf people can't hear and speak. They complain about that instead of saying "include us!" I want ASL on TV because of people's attitude toward it. I guess I don't really have a point other than say it does bothers me as much as it this thread bother you.

Anyway, I hope they will provide a captioner for the hoh and deaf.

You are the only one who speaks out then keep going on because im sure others who feel the same things about it. it would be helpful. Use your good energy to make it happen for USA.
