Colorado Springs – The Eitoap Press has reported that a Deaf man near Ft. Worth, Texas has been hospitalized after being attacked by a hearing woman. Authorities are not sure yet as to the cause of the incident, but witnesses have stated that the attack was based on the fact the man was deaf. Deaf political leaders are calling this a “hate-crime,” and are demanding accountability and justice.

Sometime between 11:15 pm and 12:05 am last night, Mike Hunt approached the hearing woman and apparently requested some type of assistance from the woman – a known street prostitute. The woman, identified as Anita “Toothless Wonder” Blow, is reported as having slapped Mr. Hunt after he allegedly requested her services.

While details are sketchy at this time, authorities stated during a press conference that Mr. Hunt apparently, after being rejected by Ms. Blow, became enraged and began yelling in muted tones, although his hands began flying as he signed in American Sign Language (ASL). “He wanted something from me, but I told him I wasn’t working,” said Ms. Blow shortly after her arrest on charges of being an audist.

She also added that she felt Mr. Hunt was wrongly accusing her of a hate crime because she didn’t know ASL. Despite her lack of signing abilities, Ms. Blow had this to say, “Ya know, there are some universal gestures that most people get, but that man [Mr. Hunt] does not know what ‘no’ means. I even gave him one of my universal finger signs, and then he flew into a rage.”

Mr. Hunt issued a press release courtesy a Deaf political group that opposes AG Bell Foundation, stating, “Oralism caused me to not understand that the woman was a prostitute. For that, I am deeply sorry. In addition to her acts of audism, she also harmed me because she is a known deficit thinker.”

Authorities are still unsure what to make of that revelation, but hospital officials will not release information on Mr. Hunt’s alleged injuries. There is some speculation that he is suffering from “aggravated verbiage” due to his lack of understanding English.

Mr. Hunt apparently also has a well-documented history of being unable to understand English and other non-Deaf people. Deaf experts note that Mr. Hunt suffers from “oralititus,” in which some Deaf people have uncontrollable rants against English-speaking people.

Details are still sketchy at this time, but a press conference has been scheduled for Friday afternoon on the corner of Van Buren and Central Avenue – near the corner liquor store. A Deaf protest in that same area has been planned, as well, as Deaf activists are seeking to teach prostitutes ASL so that future incidents may be prevented.

Hey! I’m kidding!

Just a random thought I figured to share with you.

Be good .. or be good at it.
