I think the company needs to be boycotted, so I'm going to start here.  
As a former Florida resident, I know how to get free tickets to Disney 
and that was to sing at Epcot, but we always got the free tickets for 
the family, not really me.  I wasn't really given as much access to the 
theme parks for as long as I wanted because those tickets were just for 
the family and I.  We could have gotten play four days passes, but let's 
face it, I'm not satisfied with a multimillion dollar company.  And 
they're going to eventually hurt the disabled, punishing them more than 
the travel agents they're trying to punish.  So I say we botcott.
As for some people who might think blind people should wait in line like 
everyone else, here's the problem: some of us who are blind have 
wheelchairs, and some have dogs.  I have a problem with the kids at ... 
Disney World let's say, petting the dogs.  How many times should I have 
to repeat myself and say, "Ok, kids, no petting the dog.  It's a working 
animal."  That's to be done no more than once.  And then you would have 
an entire crowd staring at me and my dog, if I have one, which thank God 
I don't because I don't want kids going all, "Cute puppy!"  Yeah, I'm 
guilty of it too, but the whole thing about cute puppies is that they're 
not all free puppies.  I could jokingly put the guide dog up for sale to 
this crowd or I could go to the front and give the crowd less stuff to 
stare at.  My boyfriend's face, while nothing like the Hunchback of 
Notre Dame's face which is swollen with deformity, is a beautifully 
reconstructed form which was done with 39 surgeries to both head and 
face.  He was born with half the face gone.  It just wasn't there. So 
they had to figure out how to correct a bunch of problems, and his mom 
hates it when people stare at him.  Well, so do I.
That's why the disabled should have the front of the line.
Ande Disney should be boycotted for taking the wrong moves.
I'm going to Universal.
