Inaccurate Reporting on AB 2072 Bill

Erroneous reporting about the California State Senate Health Committee went forward with the committee votes last Wednesday late afternoon whether the committee kill or send the AB 2072 bill to the General Assembly for the up and down votes. http://robertmason.blogspot.com/2010/05/breaking-news-ab-2072-bill-votes-today.html

From the reliable source like Karen Kingrey which she shared her information with numerous deaf individuals like this. With her permission for printing her comments on Facebook -

Karen Kingrey
Let me explain about the CA legislative process... CA. Senate Rules Committee sent AB 2072 to CA Senate Health Committee today. It reaches Sen Health Committee and will be sent to researcher/analysis staff of Sen Health Committee to review and analyze AB 2072 first. The chairperson of Sen. Health Committee will wait until get a report of analysis on... See More AB 2072 from researcher/analysis. Then chairperson will announce the date of a hearing on AB 2072. The support and opposite groups will give their presentations at health committee hearing. After the presentations, they will vote on AB 2072 to support or kill.

BREAKING NEWS - AB 2072 BILL VOTES TODAY, NOT TMW!

Karen Kingrey, former deaf lobbyist and activist, eventually found out that the AB 2072 bill within the California State Senators' Health Committee begun on the voting process TODAY, not TMW!

Karen Kingrey was told by the California Senators' Health Committee that the AB 2072 bill was most "hottest bill" ever they encountered in the Senate Rules Committee. Both opponents and proponents of the AB 2072 bill, surely fought endlessly to see the bill being dead on arrival (DOA) or going through for the General Assembly votes.

Everyone within the opposition of the AB 2072 bill from Julie Rems Smario to Ella Mae Lentz and the backing of the California Association of the Deaf znd Deaf Californians made the real difference in defeating the inhumane bill.

What's Up With Awful NAD's Philly Conference Promo Video?

Was the NAD out of mind for allowing Kirsen Poston done the promotional video with her shabby t-shirt and distracted hairdo for the NAD's 50th Conference in Philadephia, PA? http://www.nad.org/blogs/kirstenposton/2010-nad-conference-events

Pretty shocked to see someone dressed that way for NAD's conference promo video. Everything is about image how we present ourselves.

How come didn't NAD furnish the decent wardrobe for Kirsten Poston to do the video presentation? If the NAD respond about not having enough money to cover the cost of approriate wardrobe. That is called the investment in image presentation for the good impression of the NAD.

George Verditz wouldn't caught dead in wearing the underwear shirt in his classic NAD film presentations on the preservance of sign language.

Kirsten Poston kept looking at something behind the camera. Couldn't Poston memorize the script and be presentable before the camera? Or find someone, who could be an effective and marketable sign presenter without appeared unprofessional and questionable.

Poston's video appearance caused more attention on her "what the hell" shirt and hairdo than the message itself.

IS WNCSD Another "Berkeley" Plot?

Is the attempted closing of the Western North Carolina School for the Deaf (WNCSD) part of the valuable real estate grabs in name of state budget difficulties? Too many hearing people keep refer to the extremely beautiful campus architectures of the WNCSD and made the frequent suggestions for the regional university take over the WNCSD campus.

WCNSD and Berkeley Schools for the Deaf campuses were officially registered with the National Historic Places Register before the school closings. http://www.ncsdmuseum.net/

Many deaf people across America are very familiar about how the "California School for the Deaf of Berkeley" was legally stolen from the Deaf California. The state officials and University of California of Berkeley conspired to snatch the "extreme valuable"real estate from the Deaf California and deaf kids attended the Berkeley school campus thru false pretenses of being highly prone to earthquake(s). Those audists successfully did for the purpose of the University of Berkeley campus expansion thru the use of legal deceptions and fear tactics.

The "California School for the Deaf of Berkeley" (CSDB) survived the 1906 earthquake incident which left just left some minimal damages like the interior "pencil-like" cracks http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_School_for_the_Blind#Berkeley_.281867-1980.29.

The "unjustifiable" takeover of the real beautiful and majestic CSDB campus left the former CSDB graduates, former faculty members and staff personnel "emotionally and mentally violated". That still affect the present and future generation of deaf Californians which are much similar to the situation of U.S. Southwest and pre-California region also illegally snatched from the Mexicans.

The enclosed image of CSDB building -http://arch.ced.berkeley.edu/kap/2002_images/Queue/qclark_kerr04.jpg

Many CSDB graduates and faculty members had great memories of the exquisite city of Berkeley which were not likely offered at the relocation of CSDF (Fremont).

The future sale of WNCSD campus ought go to the untouched state account within future monetary resources for the deaf. No "buts:, "buts". Every school of the deaf properties are
belonged to the deaf taxpayers, not the audists' decision. Comprendo?

Shocking Revelations about Similar Groups for AB 2072 and AZ 's New Law

Many of us already knew about the entire" California Coalition" consists of audistic people whose pushed and pushed to rein in 16,000 deaf kids into the money-making schemes and deprived the very most vulnerable youngsters from acquiring the good educational foundation.

More and more interest and hate groups are behind the scene to remake America into their own fanastyland -
http://gawker.com/5529320/the-racist-hate-group-behind-arizonas-new-immigration-law?skyline=true&s=i

So we are not the only victimized by the so-called hate groups like the California Coalition, but many and many foreign-speaking citizenry face such similar treatments.

Another example of how the American media and society at large surely engage in systematic bias against foreigners and their own language-
http://gawker.com/5529349/which-of-these-people-is-the-true-hero-vendor-of-times-square-updated?skyline=true&s=i

Figure out who is really a racist and audist. That would be NOT Ella Mae Lentz.

David Eberwein (DE) already explained in his vlog posting on the Alexander Graham Bell's legal arms like the Children's Legal Fund (CLF) which were much similar to the hate groups pushed for Arizona's recent immigrant law by checking and verifying the citizens' legal residency.
