Yes, i think this is going to be a hard thing for the deaf community, they have alsready taken some gov't support from them and now CC. Common now commen sence, u dont expect a hearing person to be interpreting every little thing its on tv. Honest it will be a pain in the rear end for those with hearing lost. If u take CC of anything MOVIES, TV, OR anything that they can relect u will loose a big portion of our community. NO where is freedom of speech, assembely, press towards human kind.

Carol & Devon Hinds said 07/11/05, 6:19 am (verified)
I have always enjoyed watching shows, movies or sports with CC on. It's impossible for me to understand what people are saying without CC because I am never able to read lip. I personally think hearing people should turn the sound off and see how they feel without the sound on and then would get idea of how deaf people feel.

You have no right to rob our pleasure and intellectual education from watching DVD's with CC. Are you trying to get us back to prehistoric situation? Remember that we are now in Technology/New Age. We are all intelligent deaf and hard of hearing with human feeling. You can not put us down. Keep to continue closed captioned in order to comply with ADA. Thank you.

We, the deafies, deserved to enjoy and relaxing while we watch the TV with closed caption. If not for closed caption, the TV shows are boring and not able to enjoy the show. It should keep on forever and ever. We, the deafies, (again) deserved to be part of everything that Hearing people have. Thank for your time.

Please don't consider removing closed captioning from DVD's. I have spents my whole life as a child of deaf parents and know the value of CC to deaf people. Imagine a dramatic picture book filled with dialogue which is key to understanding the story and conclusion, but one was not able to read. That situstion could be pretty frustrating. So please do not remove CC from movies which we watch in our homes. Thank you

Why do you want to pull us(DEAF) back into dark ages so fast again??? We deserve to have a better life like Hearing people. Closed captions increase our insights so fast...without closed captions,it is like that we move on without education in daily deaf life. ...to you(HEARING),if you think that it is necessary to stop or remove closed captions then,please try what it is like to be totally deaf by put your fingers in your ears and try to watch tv news,or movies without closed captions and you will immediately understand that you cant live without closed captions at all. You can always take your fingers out of your ears, but Deaf people have no choice to be deaf or hearing! Please have heart's compassions to deaf people that REALLY need closed captions REAL BADLY!!!!!!! If it does happen to success to remove closed captions then I(TOTALLY DEAF) will feel left out and feel not respected by hearing people who think it is not necessary to have closed captions because they want to save money.....Please dont do that...Please,I beg you to keep closed captions.....if congressmen and senators side with those hearing people who think it is not necessary to have closed captions, then I, a Deaf taxpayer, am a big sucker, because they are not protecting my rights and waste my tax money!!!!!!!! KEEP CLOSED CAPTION ALIVE,THEN DEAF PEOPLE'S LIVES WILL MOVE ON OUT OF DARK AGES AND STAY IN LIGHT AGES LIKE HEARING PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!
