Message Subject How far should private business be forced to go to accommodate handicap individuals?

If you actually knew what it was like to have a physical or sensory disability, you would know how far a business should have to go.

Why shouldn't we enjoy a movie the same as everyone else does?

I wish you could spend a week with a physical or sensory disability, then you might decide that your original post may need altering, as your douche is quite prominent throughout.

I make my living making handicapped individual's lives better. Our company alters any home or business to fit the needs of the occupants, no matter what the disability. Every day I see what people with disabilities go through. I've worked for hours in houses with handicap children that basically scream all day. You cannot help but notice the effects on the parents and caregivers. It is beyond heartbreaking when you see the sacrifice people make every day. No, I cannot imagine the pain and discomfort of the afflicted they care for. How could I?

You are needlessly offended by this thread. I see both sides of the coin, because it is my business. I understand very much the desire for the disabled to enjoy life as much as possible, and do the things others enjoy for granted. I also see the business' side of things as well.
Maybe if we could start from scratch, and rebuild everything with the disabled in mind, things would be different. Things just don't work that way.
It requires not the law to change now, but people's minds. Developers, architects and contractors, and investors and the like are where it starts. Rather than being forced to comply after a building is up, the handicapped accessibility needs to be in the blueprint.

There has to be a happy medium. But what's the answer?
