Why is this? I been read the deaf news and would want to fuss at them because many years, I learned that all deaf does not READ!!!!! It made me feel sad and embarrassment.

English is important to read and learning in US. Why they ignore it? Look at German, France or Italy deaf people. They read all the time and signing in their language. Why can’t US deaf people read? All required signing not CAPTIONED!! They always said English is hard to understand. Come on!!!!

Okay. I read in deaf news stated that we, deaf need make law to pass this to allow television to have all ASL interpreters on all tv shows. Not just government or news. ALL of TV SHOWS and MOVIES. Whoa! Time out! I can understand all NEWS or GOVERNMENT but why TV shows or Movies? I saw the tv commercial and actually STINK!!! Sorry I have to say that. That was so BAD. Not know if you saw that commerical.

ASL Interpreters signing and pretty would distracting so much because we will miss best pictures on the screen. We would focus on the interpreter all the time.

What about kids? Learning disabilities? They required captioned on TV. What about foreign? Same thing. Subtilties is for everyone to read. I LOVE those subtilties on TV. If no captioned, then how we read or learn those words? Nothing. Nothing.

What about those voices? Would ASL interpreter do that for multiple voices?

You know what? I have met few deaf friends in high school, and they were exciting to have real English book in class. They showed me that book. I was so SHOCKED and HEARTBROKEN same time. They do not know much of English in elementary school or middle school. They finally learned in high school because of University now required ENGLISH. Mine already in advance English since school year along with hearing classes.

That is why deaf does not READ or not UNDERSTAND the English! They need ASL for reading. Sad.

Sorry I have to vent that out.
