[blindlaw] Pimp My Cane

[Mark BurningHawk]

Oh cut that out.  I was born blind, too, and I don't have insecurities  
about injuring someone; I've never been responsible for anyone else's  
injury that I didn't mean to, so stop making it personal when I'm  
trying to keep it general.  Blindness is *NOT* a liability any more  
than clumsiness or large feet.  Having bright red hair can e a  
distraction which can cause injury to someone who sees it.  I protest  
loudly the idea that blind people, especially high-end, intelligent,  
lawyer-type blind people accept the fact that they may injure someone  
more readily than a sighted person with two left feet might.  When I  
see professionals who are blind accepting this shame instead of  
actively working to correct it, I am sad because this attitude will  
trickle down to disrupt my life when I do something unconventional.   
So knock off that psychology crap, please; I use a guide dog, not a  
cane anyway.
