Taxis for the deaf?
What bollocks is that?
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:10, archived)
Walking home/getting public transport can be a risk
As I can't hear gangs, more likely to get mugged etc

*makes note*
Good one. I might use that one with the taxman

Absolute utter utter fucking bollocks.

Are you deaf?
Have you been mugged? Has the police told the goverment that in NO UNCERTAIN TERMS I would have been safe if I could have heard them?

Doubt it

Oh. My. God.
You're being serious, aren't you?

Shut up. Really.
I am male. Men are many times more likely to be attacked than women.

Where's my free fucking taxi, you feeble fucking whinging prick? It's no wonder people with genuine needs don't get the services they need with money-grabbing life-fearing pricks like you about.
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:17, archived)
Yes, because you know from being able to hear footsteps
or general background noise that it's a gang/mugger behind you.
And they usefully announce themselves and their intentions after all, so yeah, being deaf gives you a serious disadvantage in most situations.

I'm sorry for your disability love, but christ.

haha... THEY'RE ALL AFTER ME!

Phew. That's a relief.
It was looking slightly like bullying then. But you've arrived and given it all a gloss of acceptability. Hello Mrs. BotheredMe. How's tricks?

this is UTTER UTTER shite!
what about people who can't fight for shit? I suppose they should get DLA because if they get mugged then the police will tell them..

'IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS'

that if they hadn't been soft as shite, then they'd be able to fight them off...

FUCK OFF PLEASE!

how the fuck is being able to hear
going to stop people in front of you mugging you?

All muggers attack from behind.
FACT FACT FACT.

If you'd have put up less struggle, it would have been much more enjoyable for us both.

THIS! with a fucking go-faster-stripe!
if my gf couldn't get DLA or a spack-plaque for her car with the crippling pain of an MS episode... you can fucking sing for it

Oh for fuck's sake.

(I helped save b3ta! Bud Muhnquai Update your profile or fuck off, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:13, archived)
eh? are you for real?
my mother can hear perfectly but she'd be just as useless against a GANG or a mugger!
(likeajackhammer, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:13, archived)
she can't hear where she is going when she runs away

Good lord.

Sorry sammi but thats bullshit.
Deaf and blind people manage to traverse london all the time without these problems.

I bet they all get a lot higher rate DLA than I do
You can bullshit it all you like.
(I helped save b3ta! Methylene Blue - electrohead, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:16, archived)
No they dont
I have done alot of work with disabled people and they do not get taxis everywhere
(I helped save b3ta! Damion International - now taking orders., Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:19, archived)
most people I've met with degenerative MS feel empowered to be doing things on their own

(likeajackhammer, Thu 11 Oct 2007, 12:21, archived)
This
I know of several people who are disabled and all of them take public transport to various places and cope very well.

Plus, I'd never be able to hear someone behind me with my hearing and that's never stopped me going out.

imagine a rotweiller guide dog
that would be handy against muggers
