Why should I make a title...You can't see this anyhow....

Well, for those of you fortunate enough to be able to read this, prepare yourself for how stupid we have become.....In our life's work to become as politically correct as possible, we have become complete idiots. If you haven't figured it out by now, today's rant is going to be about blindness. A horrid condition I agree. I also think we should take certain measures to helps these poor souls out, but shouldn't there be a line?! You are probably wondering what I mean, well think about this. In certain American states, (I bet it was the hick ones) you can STILL get a license if you are legally blind. By renewing your license through the mail, you avoid that pesky eye test. Well now, driving around without sight, sounds rather easy....nope! A car accident about two years ago claimed a 7 year old's life. When the parent tried to seek compensation they found out that they could neither sew the driver nor the state. Why? Ok, well the driver could not be held responsible for his actions, seeing as how he could not see, and the state couldn't be charged for an act they didn't commit. Now how much does that suck?! But hey, for once it isn't a localized American problem. In some countries, the back of the driver's manual contains waiver saying something along the lines of, that if you have trouble reading this manual you can obtain an audio copy to be mailed to you....Now this doesn't mean you can still get around the eye exam, they seem to have you there, but I just thought that was interesting.....Another case of America's PC stupidity.....A "special" handicap church for the blind, in New York state, held a drawing for a large screen television. (61 inches I believe) The catch was, you had to be a member of this church, (I guess they were trying to boost attendance) and to be a member you had to be blind.......hmmmmmm, no what does a blind person care if their teley is 61 inches or 6 inches?! But hey, there is still hope.....Oh wait, I was thinking of something else.....Oh well.......
