[Blind-rollers] is this discrimination?

[Holly Alonzo]

Hi All.  I talked to a friend with a power chair.  She said she got her
chair from the scooter store.  She suggested I call them because they
did all of the work.  
I called them and things took forever and they never called me back.
They have been wasting my time for a few weeks now.  Today my husband
called them to find out why we still have not heard from them.  Ready?
 
They said they could not give me or sell me a chair because I am blind.
Blind people can't tell where they are going and they could r un into
doors, walls or people.  
 
I explained that we sort of use a cane to ensure that we don't run into
those things and several blind people user power chairs and there are
even schools that train guide dogs with power chairs.
 
They told me they weren't saying I couldn't get a chair, just not with
them.  It was a moral decision and its their choice.  They didn't even
find out which chair would be right for me, me talk to a mobility
specialist, or anything.  They just heard blind and turned it down.  
 
Should I contact and ADA lawyer and pursue this?
