Hey dude..  I am flexible.. I know,  it's hard to believe, but I AM
flexible...  You see, I just want the BEST for the deaf!  Let them be
themselves!
    What bothers me,  is the fact that the deaf are being constantly
opressed as an "inferior" population...  Getting no respect for their
language...  I feel very strongly about this- so that's why I might
sound in-flexible...

    I am willing to compromise.. But I'm not  willing to give up my
stand.
