I know but there were injured people there. Not only shooting victims but the panic of people running to escape the shooting may have injured themselves in the process. People may have succumbed to heart attacks or other medical conditions exacerbated by the sudden shooting.

Let's see, a lone gunman shooting in a crowded airport. Yeah, probably a proper response on getting that many emergency vehicles at the airport not knowing how many shooting victims.

Which is why I prefer to use oral-aural term as a clarification. The term "oral" by itself is not necessarily clear on the requisite auditory input. Plus you have to deal with the "old school" oral vs today's oral which have different connotations. The term "aural" deals with auditory input and...

I constantly speak all the time ever since I was little. The whole process of speaking is very natural for me. I use my hearing aid to listen with my moderate-severe hearing loss. Yet the key factor was the early intervention on getting me a hearing aid at age 2 (this was back in 1967) and...

Certainly. What I stated presumes a person with a hearing loss that does not have any of the additional condition as you have stated. There are a variety of factors that would help a person attain the necessary speaking skills. There are also other factors that would prevent such attainment or...

How?

Are you a city driver that drive to work battling traffic everyday? Or are you a country driver that drive to work in the countryside everyday with little or no traffic? Or you do a bit of driving from the city to the countryside, or from the countryside to the city? I drive in the...

Highest speed claimed was 158 mph. Pretty darned dangerous and extremely reckless putting the public at danger.

So, you condone excessive speeding of 100 mph with max speed pushing over 150 mph through several states and towns? I see.

It's pretty obvious that having a sign that says "Gun Free Zone" will NOT stop criminals from bringing their guns to a place they know is essentially devoid of people that carry guns, thus making the whole area a sitting duck for easy shooting. Putting up a sign or reminding people the area is a...

How is Grizz not a Deaf person? He has a hearing loss, no? If he identifies himself as a Deaf person then who are you to tell him he's not even though he identifies himself as hoh, which is fine. Lately the trend on using the term "Deaf" by certain groups is being applied to anyone with any...

"Perfect speech" is just as much nonsense to be used among hearing people. It is an utterly nonsense term to use and doesn't make any sense, regardless. "Perfect speech" is subjective and relative and yet people need not to get hung up on over that term. If speech is intelligible and people can...

The article did say he was averaging 98 mph. That was purely reckless driving. The driver unnecessarily put at risk other people driving on the same road as he. What the media are doing is glorifying his reckless behavior. Who knows if it'll generate more copycats to try that stunt. I hope that...

I'm sorry, but "pretty voices" do not make any sense at all when there are myriads of different accents and regional dialects out there. Exactly what is a "pretty voice"? That's a new one there. I've met hearing southerners that have these really heavy drawls that even other non-southerners...

Putting metal detectors at building entrances would prove ineffective and inefficient. You would still have people outside of building entrances anyway. Best to follow Ben Gurion Airport's example. Israeli airport security skips scanners, favours profiling The 'Israelification' of airports...

Avg speed 98 mph with a max speed of 158 mph. Rather reckless driving putting possibly other people lives at stake. And people seem to condone this type of behavior? Unreal. People glorifying the news of the record-breaking attempt? And here is a chilling response: It would be a matter of...

Somewhere along the line people make their decision on how they want to use their voice and decide if it still beneficial to do so.

And there are many d/hh folks whose speech are like other hearing folks' speech. I wouldn't put it in the "very rare" category at all with the numerous people I have met and seen elsewhere over the years and today. But why bother trying to compare a person's speech to that of a hearing person...

Thinking...27 more days to go.

You need to remember that the range of hearing loss can range from mild to profound. other factors would be the age of early intervention when one gets a hearing aid or ci, parental involvement, and so on. HH kids can and do speak as well as their hearing peers.I see it all the time. The term...
