We're don't live in perfect world

Re "Arctic Circle closes due to ADA lawsuit," May 6): For the past 12 years, I have been in one stage of disability or another, so I am speaking from experience.

Yeah, Yeah - I've only got one foot, but I still have to buy a pair of shoes.
In my case, I'd rather buy a pair of rights, but it just doesn't work that way.
What the hell am I supposed to do with a left shoe other than charity for another cripple!

This is what happens when government and beaurocrats pass laws about how you can earn a living and run your life.

This is what happens when beaurocrats give contracts to local buddies to install wheelchair ramps on city hall at a cost much, much higher than any fool would ever pay- but if government is ripping you off that's okay because you only want to blame tweakers and what not.

I'm usually not picky about grammar, but the headline really bothers me. You'd think the TS would have fixed it.

sweet!

The T-S doesn't really have an editor. When they were hiring there was a typo in the job title it read: "edy or" so they thought any one named eddy or anything else would do. They got what they hired....Or

[I see the truth of it]

Of course the ADA guy has no idea about small business, he has a government job! He doesn't have to worry about overhead and wages and such, he gets paid to ride a desk and as long as there are handicapped people in the world, he gets a paycheck.

"I see the truth of it"???

What a lame (and Olllddd!) thing to say!

Gov't. workers dont pay taxes?
Dont work 40+ hours like you?
Dont have to go without raises like you?
Doesnt have to worry about lay-offs when the already stretched agency is going to be cut 20%,
so we can continue 'freeing' the Iraqis?

Ride a desk?

Next time your mother needs a place to stay thats safe, or your daughter cant buy food for her kids,
I guess instead of helping get your power back on at 3 AM, I'll just go 'ride my desk' and bask in all this glory!

Dip.

[anon from Eureka]

I thought it was PG&E that helped get power back at 3AM..........didn't know PG&E was a gov't agency. Hmmm

lol, what tripe. Government agencies historically are out of touch with the small businessman since the higher-ups are manipulated by large corporations. The "just fix it" leaves no room for negotiation or "resonable accomodations" in a small town like this.

Sounds like he's the one who's out of touch.

government bastards need to get real jobs and not live looking for something for free from the People under the guise of building a better society- we've had it with your types and people are getting to where they WON'T be pushed around by fools like this regardless of the power these weaklings think they have.

ADA- screw off with a broken wheel chair on a steep grade that's wet from rain.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, gee, another witty response, you must find these on the bathroom wall or something, lol.

Best entertainment there is!

Thank you but I'm here to piss you off not entertain you. That is why all you have to say amounts to name calling.

Because that's all you understand, the "higher" insults went over your head. lol

[The Real Bubba Joe]

So the cops have a "higher insult" level? So stupid, moron and redneck are "higher" insults? WOW! I must have just fallen off the turnip truck and never heard insults so clever. What school did you not graduate from?

lol, no those are the lower ones, the fact you didn't catch the other ones simply proves my point. And no, I am not a cop, whose making assumptions now?

[The Real Bubba Joe]

Those are the only ones you have made, truth wannabe. I would be happy to see you prove anything different. But you can't. You keep trying to ignore the request but you'll find I am very persistent about what is being argued and won't be sidetracked easily by juvenile tripe. Please remind us of your Logic MS Spock before it escapes us all.
