[nfb-talk] Some of the Blind Want to Insite A Riot:

[T. Joseph Carter]

What are you on about Ken, and why should we complain about some random
person who's really ticked off to other random people about how yet a
third random person needs to act?  Based on your incomplete rant about
this guy, he seems to be a danger only to himself really.  While that is
certainly unfortunate, there's nothing we can do about it.

Nor should we become involved--that, more than allowing him to do whatever
he is going to do, will have a negative impact on us.  Who is the NFB to
try to interfere with his right to attempt civil disobedience to seek some
redress for his grievances?  Granted, it sounds like he's suggesting that
he wants to take unwise action.  It is not our place to dictate his
actions, no matter how foolish.
