[nfb-talk] Fw: [nabs-l] Navy Denies Blind Persons Opportunity To Take Public TourOf USS JFK Ship In Boston Harbor - Allows Other DisabledVisitors To Board

[Cindy Handel]

I think we need to bring back the rally's and marches we did 20 and 30 years 
ago.  Maybe we're not in the public eye as much anymore, so we're losing 
some of the ground we gained in the past.

I swear, we're going backwards instead of forwards.
Again, we're grouped with small children.

And what's this? The doors are wide enough for a wheelchair, yet
dangerous for a blind guy?

And since when does the fact that it's "a ship of war" negate that the
tours were offered ***to the general public***, making the ship a
facility to which the general public is invited? Hullo?

I'm getting about sick of the safety argument. I'd like to show this
Paul what's-his-name just how unsafe we can be.
