You nailed it!
If they do not need the deaf community, like they state, they should at least stop going to this board and go to a board called "allhearing.com" or "allCI.com". It's so incoherent, I don't understand they don't see it. It gives me a impression they are here for some insecure reasons, trying to put those who have different experiences down.
A bit offtopic:
This bashing reminds me a of the marijuana debate. Some of those who smoke, says they are doing great, while scientist and psychologist who deals with many of those people, do findings that shows some bad downsides of pot. But some of those smokers still are very defensive to the downsides that exists. They attacks the science/goverment for lying, and only accept scientifical findings that shows the upside of pot smoking. They even go for campaigns that ignore all downsides of pot smoking, and promotes it can save the world. The pot business is a billion dollar one, and it gives many people a brighter reality, at least for a while. And now, change pot with CI to see the similarities, sure this comparision is flawed, but still some similar traits.
Ok, closing that vent again..
Hope I did not give anyone the idea to ask their children to smoke weed
