I have yet to meet a baby in virto that believes in abortion.

I stand behind the boy. However, I do have concerns about his inability to read. With that said, I believe that the judge has pissed on the Constitution by violating the boy's First Amendment rights.

50 States Summary of Newborn Hearing Screening Legislation Sorry to barge in, but not every state, Dixie. Here's a list of them.

Didn't know they were, Grum! News to me!

I agree! However, when my child is driving, no hats or sunglasses on. It's too bright? Tough! You are still a minor, no sunglasses, no hats on. I had one trainer when I drove truck that forbad me to wear sunglasses (it was also winter).

Well, would you rather spend millions of dollars -- our tax money -- to feed, clothe and house these killers or spend, say $1.17 on a bullet or that much on electricity to zap him/her? Besides, the killer would never do it again and would be immediately released after it's done. It's a good deal!

I'll give ya that, jillio. Maybe I'm used to the way I do things, but I just don't get people telling stuff to me like I'm reading about. I'm actually quite floored by the hearies responses.

:bowlol: I gotta hand it to ya, that was a quick comeback! I was being facetious in that part, but I think you know what I meant.

I can count on one hand the times I've misunderstood in a conversation and my reaction to it. The other party was taken aback by my abruptness to be told (not asked) to speak up, as I was beyond being polite anymore, as she was enjoying whispering and I knew it.

Not sure who Chase is and I thought there was an implication that there would be rudeness from him regarding something I said.

Not a bit, jillio. But, when talking with people, I don't start the conversation by saying, "excuse me, I'm deaf, can you speak up, please?" I also don't start cussing a blue streak at someone because they talked with an obstruction. I'm very polite. When I started going to plasma, they...

Rudeness is not communication, jillio. You know that. tsk. tsk.

jillio, You're a woman, right? Do you hide that? Of course not. I'm a guy. I don't hide that. I also wear my hair short. Did you see the link to my video? You'd see my hearing aids. If I'm hiding something, then you are, too. As a woman, you shouldn't hide what makes you one. :D

It's my job to communicate, as at the end of the week, I'll have my degree in Communication Studies. I'd better be able to communicate and, based on my grades, it looks like it! jillio, you don't have to argue with me to make a point. I know you're an educated female and don't want to back...

Not a bit, jillio. I don't and won't say, "Um, excuse me, but I'm deaf, will you please speak up?" The only time I would actually say that is if someone repeatedly is not talking loud enough for me to hear with my hearing aids turned on full blast. Some people whisper when they talk and think...

At the same time, Pepsi, you need to humor them. Ask them why they want to know. Ask them if they talk to other people like that. Ask them if they'd like it if you asked them a personal question such as they're asking. And do it with a straight face.

I'm not advocating hiding the deafness, shel. You know me better than that. We need to be as sly as foxes and harmless as doves if we think we can do this. We don't hide anything, by no means! We still are deaf, but we don't bring attention to it. That is the difference and we don't bring...

Is this all you'd do? Shoot! Christian or not, I'd break their fingers . . . one at a time!

I concur. Signatures need to match the driver's license or state ID card; as for signatures on a check, I've seen people print their name, nothing wrong with this. Personally, I prefer handwriting to printing, as all my notes are written, not printed.

My comments may get me banned, but at this point and seeing and hearing the whining of enough deaf and hoh people to last me a lifetime, I think something needs to be said to all of you. Seriously, put yourselves in their shoes and instead of acting like jerks: Help them out! This is the...
