[quote=Anonymous]Haven't seen this commercial and I didn't click on the link. But I can tell you that I'm tired of seeing disabled persons (especially children) used to "scare straight" evildoers as if having a disability were the ultimate frightening rock bottom that gets you to turn your life around. I've seen this time and time again in TV shows, commercials, etc. Bring on the disabled person, have them tell you that they became disabled as a result of their "bad" behavior and that their life is essentially over. How can this possibly be reconciled with the message that disabled people lead rich lives. How can I turn to my disabled daughter and explain such ridiculous messages and why disabled people allow themselves to be used this way? Is there not a better way to campaign against drunk driving, text messaging, and so forth?[/quote]
