STOP THE INSANITY

Republican Equality begins, when Equal Access Ends. They think that taking away the infrastructure that for over twenty years has allowed people with disabilities to have equal access to public buildings will somehow make things more equal because it will cause everyone to be treated the same. Somehow, taking away ramps, for instance, will bring more equality to people with mobility issues. Somehow, getting rid of handicapped parking will make the parking lot more equal. So, for Republicans/Conservatives,, Equality really does begin when Equal Access Ends. Obviously, THIS IS INSANE. And those of us who can see this insanity for what it is must take an unbreakable stand against it. Let us all tell every Conservative/Republican we know how insane this is and keep telling them until their party and philosophy drop this insanity, or else they'll drop all of those of us with disabilities right off the proverbial cliff.

IT IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY

So, Conservatives/Republicans would let Everyone With a Disability die if that meant saving money on the construction and maintaining of, well, if they really had their way, any building really, but at the moment it is State, Locally and Privately Owned Buildings. But, as my final short story 'KEEP THE UNPRODUCTIVE OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND' proves beyond all doubt, if they could make it happen with Federally Owned Buildings as well, they would not hesitate a moment to do so. They do not care if People With Disabilities are cut off or even die as log as no one has to pay to make facilities accessible to People With Disabilities. So, for Conservatives/Republicans, it really is all about the money. AND, HOW CAN A PHILOSOPHY AND A PARTY THAT CARES MORE ABOUT SAVING MONEY BY NOT MAKING BUILDINGS ACCESSIBLE TO PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES THAN ABOUT SAVING THEIR VERY LIVES POSSIBLY CALL ITSELF "PRO LIFE"?

A WARPED SENSE OF REALITY

Greed is one reason Conservatives/Republicans want to strip away the protections of The Americans With Disabilities Act. But it is not, of course, the only reason. The other is their warped and twisted idea of "Equality". Somehow, to them, "Equality" means treating everyone exactly The Same, regardless of life circumstances. To them, in their warped and twisted sense of reality, what to others is Equal Access is somehow "special" rights or treatment, which undermines their very idea of Equality. Of course,, to any thinking person, it is insane to say making someone in a wheelchair or a walker use stairs is Equality, but then Conservatives/Republicans do not think much, if at all. So, they want everyone treated exactly the same and they call that "Equality" and call ramps and other Protections for People With Disabilities "Inequality". But it is time for everyone with a Disability and everyone who cares about anyone with a Disability to force Conservatives/Republicans to think and thus see the error of this view and so be forced to begin supporting True Equality. So LET THOSE OF US WHO DO UNDERSTAND GET TO IT, TODAY, NOW!

WHY GREED THE ENEMY OF EVERYONE WITH A SPECIAL NEED

Having proven beyond any trace or even shadow of a doubt over the past seven weeks plus one day's worth of posts that Conservatives/Republicans want to scale back The Protections of The Americans With Disabilities Act as much as possible if not totally undo it and DO NOT care how many People With Disabilities Die as a result, the question is why? The answer is quite simple, actually. GREED. They care more about saving State, Locally and Privately Owned Facilities money by not needing to install or maintain these accommodations than about saving the lives of People With Disabilities which could be at risk without these accommodations. So, greed really is the enemy of everyone with a Special Need.

FROM SILENCING US TO LOCKING US UP, AN OVERALL SUMMARY OF SEVEN WEEKS OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

So, first, Conservatives make it impossible for People with instantly noticeable Disabilities to even vote, our most basic Right in a Representative Democracy, in 'THE SILENCING OF THE BROKEN', PUBLISHED ON TUESDAY, JULY NINTH, 2013. This is of course an excellent place to start if they want to take away all of The Rights of People With Disabilities, because, as noted in 'IN SUMMARY OF THE SILENCING OF THE BROKEN'-FRIDAY, JULY 12TH, 2013, if People With Disabilities can not even vote, then there is no way to voice their/our dissatisfaction with any other actions that Federal or State Law Makers may choose to take against People With Disabilities. If we can not even vote, what can we do about it when ramps and elevators are not repaired or even deliberately destroyed? The answer, of course, apart from seeking to get able bodied friends to take our side is, nothing. Which is of course the genius of Conservatives starting taking away this most v basic freedom. But, of course, it does not end there. Nick's inability to get around a Football Stadium in "THE PRICE OF WHAT SOME CALL LIBERTY"- Tuesday, July 16th, 2013, may seem like a small matter to non Football Fans, i myself am, by the way, among the non fans, but they could substitute something that they are passionate about and think how they would feel if they had a limitation and then became unable to participate in their chosen activity because of that limitation and then it might not seem such a small matter. If anyone tries this and then finds themselves boiling at the thought, they should read and accept the challenge in 'IN SUMMARY THE PRICE OF WHAT SOME CALL LIBERTY AND A CHALLENGE"-FRIDAY, JULY 19TH, 2013. We all have something that we are passionate about and that we would be angry and defiant if someone told us we could not do, so use this to put yourself in Nick's shoes and then use this do get angry and then do something about it. In "WHEN EQUAL ACCESS ENDS, THE CHILLING TRUTH ABOUT CONSERVATIVES ANTI A.D.A. ACTIONS"-TUESDAY, JULY 23RD, 2013, we saw that it is not that Conservatives simply want everyone treated exactly the same and for State and Local Governments to not have to spend money to build or maintain accommodations for People With Disabilities and are unaware that People With Disabilities could die as result of these Protections being taken away, the chilling truth is that Conservatives simply DO NOT care if everyone with any kind of disability at all dies, and "IN SUMMARY OF WHEN EQUAL ACCESS ENDS, THE CHILLING TRUTH ABOUT CONSERVATIVES ANTI A.D.A. ACTIONS AND LIGHTING A FIRE" anyone who does care if everyone with any kind of Disability at all dies should have had afire lit under them that will compel them to do something about it before equal access does in fact end, because make no mistake,, that is what Conservatives/Republicans want to do, and if we are not constantly guarding the gates against this, they will succeed in doing it. If equal access ends outright, the conditions that bring about the events of "CONSERVATIVE INJUSTICE IN THE RESTROOM, THE RIGHT TO BE, THE RIGHT TO PEE"-MONDAY, JULY 29TH, 2013, will obviously come into place, even if the actual events of this story are somewhat over the top, as I acknowledge in "IN SUMMARY OF CONSERVATIVE INJUSTICE IN THE THE RESTROOM, THE RIGHT TO BE, THE RIGHT TO PEE"-WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7TH, 2013, but people in wheelchairs really WILL face embarrassing situations if we let Conservatives take away handicapped Restrooms, which they will if we do not make sure that they DO NOT. While some might say that the boy in "THE WHEEL TURNS, LET IT BE HEARD FROM SEA TO SEA"-FRIDAY, AUGUST 9TH, 2013, took the coward's way out from his perspective his life had come to have so little value to everyone except his parents tat he felt he had no alternative and I would argue the way Conservatives act about People With Disabilities he might not be the only one who comes to this conclusion. On Wednesday, August 14th, 2013's Post "IN SUMMARY OF THE WHEEL TURNS, IT IS TIME TO FIGHT" I argued that it is time for those of us with Disabilities and those of us who care about those with Disabilities to TAKE A STAND and demand that all anti People With Disabilities Action by Conservatives end now, immediately. For those who share my concern but are not ready on the above mentioned evidence alone to take strong action against the anti Americans With Disabilities Act forces of The Conservative Philosophy and The Modern Republican Party, I sight four more items: First, in "THE SCENT OF A WOMAN, THE MIND OF A CHILD"-TUESDAY, AUGUST 20TH, 2013, I show what will happen to at least some people with mental/emotional disabilities if Conservatives/ Republicans are allowed to cut funding for State and Locally Run Programs that help them learn to function in society. Second, in "IN SUMMARY OF AND A CHALLENGE FROM THE SCENT OF A WOMAN, THE MIND OF A CHILD"-FRIDAY,AUGUST 23RD, 2013, I show that Conservative defunding of these programs could happen in reality and effect millions and challenge anyone who does not want to see this happen to take some action, ANY ACTION. Thirdly, in "KEEP THE UNPRODUCTIVE OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND"-TUESDAY, AUGUST 27TH, 2013, I show the ultimate end game for Conservatives/Republicans with regard to People With Disabilities, confining everyone with any kind of Disability at all permanently to their/our homes. Make no mistake, this is the ultimate Goal of every anti A.D.A. Conservative/Republican, to keep all of Those of Us With any kind of Disability at all permanently out of the public eye and out of their sight and thus out of their minds, as I further showed in the fourth and final item: "IN SUMMARY OF KEEP THE UNPRODUCTIVE OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND"-FRIDAY, AUGUST 30TH, 2013. So,, first they make it so that Those of Us With Disabilities CAN NOT vote at all,, so that we will have no recourse at all against anything beyond this that they do since we can no longer voice our objections at the polls. Then they start small, making it impossible for Those of Us With Disabilities to get into entertainment venues, but no more, and since those are elective activities anyway, no one outside of People With Disabilities who happen to be fans of these particular venues and our families and friends will much notice, so it slips by larger society. But with this beginning, slowly but surely ending equal access elsewhere still slips by largely unnoticed,except by those who needed equal access and their family and friends, of course. Once Equal Access in general ends, ending equal access in Public Restrooms seems perfectly natural and logical,, and no one will notice. If State and Locally Owned Buildings are not required to even keep up existing handicapped friendly infrastructure, then obviously new schools, a State matter after all, would not be required to even be built with such accommodations, and we see the results of that. Obviously, if State and Local Governments are no longer required to accommodate the needs of the Physically Disabled, they would also not be required to accommodate the needs of the mentally or emotionally disabled, and of course that also ends in tragedy. Of course,, the logical conclusion to all of this is to completely Repeal The Americans With Disabilities Act, and then make sure that Conservatives/ Republicans are never reminded of the problems they have created by confining everyone with any kind of Disability at all permanently to their homes so that they are forever out of sight and out of mind. I believe with every Fiber of my being that all of this is the eventual agenda of The Anti Americans With Disabilities Act branch of The Conservative Philosophy and The Republican Party, and I have proven it beyond doubt with real world examples from things they have actually said and done in recent times in several of my commentaries. So, the question remains, what do we d about it. Letters to The Editor and or our elected Representatives are good, as are phone calls, live visits, rallies, and personal conversations with family and friends. But above all, however we do it, with thee ideas or better ones that my readers may have, the important thing is that we RAISE THE ALARM, NOW! THE ENEMY IS AT THE GATES, AND IF WE ARE CAUGHT SLEEPING, ALL OF US WITH DISABILITIES WILL BE TRAMPLED UNDERFOOT INTO THE DUST. SO, HOWEVER YOU DO IT, SOUND THE TRUMPETS, CALL THE GUARD AND RAISE THE ALARM, OR CONSERVATIVES WILL HAVE ALL OF THOSE OF US WITH ANY KIND OF DISABILITY AT ALL UNABLE TO VOTE BY NEXT YEAR AND DEAD OR PERMANENTLY CONFINED TO OUR HOMES BY THEE YEAR AFTER. SO WE MUST SOUND THE ALARM, NOW, WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME, AND THEN, MAYBE, WE CAN TOP THIS MAD PUSH TO MAKE EVERYONE BE AND BE TREATED EXACTLY THE SAME AND CALL THAT EQUALITY. WE EACH HAVE DIFFERENT TALENTS. LET EACH OF US USE OURS AS BEST WE ARE ABLE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE REPUBLICAN ANTI PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AGENDA GOES NO FURTHER AND IS IN FACT TOTALLY REVERSED. LET'S GO! SINCERELY, MATTHEW LUCAS BECKETT.
