Wow, that was some semantic gymnastics.
Fine, but not padding the world. |

What you don't think the laws governing disabled access are legal protections?

The logical conclusion of rkz's argument is that rkz should not be guaranteed access to the hotdog place. Why? Because the peanut guy can't go to the burger joint, and the asthma guy can't go to the barbecue place. So, let's be fair. If wheelchair guy wants to say "fuck peanut guy" and "fuck asthma guy" then, by all means, fuck you too, wheelchair guy.
Should peanuts and smoking be made illegal? No, I don't think so. But if they restrict certain people from entering those businesses, then so be it (according to rkz). If the lack of a wheelchair ramp restricts rkz from entering a business, then so be it. Let's be fair, okay? Let's not be selfish, point-dodging hypocrites.

Again, I am talking about access only not, protection.
An allergy does not restrict access. Good topic for another thread. We are off-topic and I never stated nor implied fuck anyone. |

Access only, not protection? How does that work if that access is not protected by law?

Exactly, I am talking about access being protected by law.
I am not talking about making substances or behavior within establishments illegal. That is off-topic. |

Okay. I think I get the distinction.
[eta] Although the distinction reminds me a little of that which can be drawn between de facto and de jure discrimination. |

So I take it you're ignoring your ability to throw yourself forward and drag yourself into the store? Cause I mean, once you're in, you dont expect any kind of protection inside the store. You dont care if they make you eat on the floor, obviously. Right?

Still unable to understand that we are discussing access & I am not discussing what happens inside. Unless you are unable to discuss access and this is just another lame attempt at changing the subject, either way... Pathetic. |
