Maybe if we all write Mark Riccobono via officeofthepresident at nfb.org we might get an answer, hopefully.

I would  like to know what the view of our national leaders is about this.  This troubles me very much!

Hi,

If the owners would pull something like this toward the victims, what other lapses of conscience might they have regarding our organization?  It makes me wonder if they are sue-happy?  I don't mean to be unfair, but to me, suing the victims, of all people, who don't need any more on their plate right now, seems unconscionable.

I had wondered the same thing Dan.  I hope we made the deal before the shootings and the actions of the hotel against the victims.

Yes, I didn't make that connection right away either, so you aren't the only one.

Isn't the connection rather obvious?

I had not realized until I saw these news reports that the hotel we are using for our 2019 convention is the same hotel that the Las Vegas shooter used to massacre more 58 people in injure hundreds more. I had not made the connection. The reason it has resurfaced in the news is that the hotel's owners are suing the victims of the shooting, to stop them from claiming damages from the hotel, if the hotel is found to be culpable. This seems to be kind of a slimy move on the part of a hotel, with which the NFB is contracting with.

Maybe we reached out to them before the shootings -- or at least before those callous pre-emptive law suits?  Or, maybe this is why the NFB is getting such good rates?

Just what, I wonder, has this got to do with blindness or us?
