It is scary when cops start barking orders at hearing people, demanding immediate compliance or risk use of force. It must be terrifying for deaf/hearing impaired people since cops have a propensity to interpret anything other than obedience as resisting or non-compliance and then use force unnecessarily. Cops may not encounter deaf people very often, but it is their responsibility to reasonably assess the situation before mistaking lack of hearing for non-obedience.

I contacted the ACLU and they did nothing. After losing most of my hearing from having a severe stroke during brain aneurysm surgery, I was arrested at the Courthouse because I lost my balance. They arrested me saying I was drunk in public. They refused to look at my medical info and they handcuffed me behind my back and shackled me. Pretty difficult to sign with your hands behind your back.

I hadn't thought about it much before, but I think that people with public service jobs, such as police, should be required to know some basic signs that are internationally used for: "I don't understand". Whether the person in the car is a foreigner or just deaf there is no reason people should have to suffer from lack of ability to communicate.

I think it might be a good idea for the country to think of doing a sticker on plates, like the ones we have to say that our plates are renewed, stating that someone is deaf or hard of hearing. It would be something that would be effective, I believe.

Hi Marley man my name is Ineko Gary, I am DEAF-BLIND. I went blind at six months old in the hands of my birth mother. She left me in the car with the windows rolled up a roll of the seat into plastic and suffocated. It left me blind in some brain damage. And then when I was between the ages of 11 and 13 I started losing my hearing. But my birth father told my stepmom that I was lying and faking about having trouble hearing. But my step mom always believed me because she was deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other. I would turn the TV all the way up, turn my Walkman all the way up. And when my mom will close the bathroom door then I couldn’t hear her. And my dad always told my family that I’m faking being hard of hearing and he also thinks that I was also faking being blind. I will get a lot of weapons because of my disabilities. And now today I only have a tiny bit of light perception. And without hearing aids I am profoundly deaf and with hearing aids I am profoundly profoundly hard of hearing. So that means I am considered deaf blind. Growing up I was not allowed to learn sign language while my dad was over he said that cuss words in his house he’s in some language is a bad word. I also did not learn braille growing up because that was also bad word. So my mom step mom had to do my homework for me when I was 16 years old. My mom taught the school to teach me Braille because I could not see regular print and reading a large print hurt my eyes and he said OK. But then my dad stuck behind my moms back called the school and told them to not teach her any sign language and you do not teach her any braille. And they asked my dad why my dad told the school that she is too dumb and retarded and stupid to learn how to read in braille . So I had to stream in school to do print so I will go to sleep in classes. But when I got home on the weekends my mom did all my heart for me why answer to questions and help me get touched up or caught up on all my schoolwork in the towers able to graduate on time. So I did not learn sign language until I was 18 learning to live on my own and I learned on contracted braille also. On contracted braille it’s like reading a book. Being deaf blind it’s not easy but I keep on going

While I thanks ACLU and Marlee for providing valuable information but I think this is outrageous.Deaf people are expected to memorised the whole procedure with the police? Hearing people don't have to do this because they can hear and follow instructions.Deaf people expected to follow those instructions by memory and obviously under stress are bound to slip and find themselves victim of police brutality. Labelling your car as "I am deaf" is a breach of liberties and makes you a target.
@AnthonySammons8 жыл бұрын
The point is if you don't know the law or your rights, the police will instruct you your rights as they are legally obiliged to do so. How can deaf person hear this instruction? Likewise for police demanding people to keep their hands on the wheel or cuffing hands behind the back. How can a deaf person communicat with sign language if this is the case? Instead of this, the police should look to improve communication, engagement and authorities should defuse the arms race between the people and the police since the latter is being militarised and developed this engagement in response to citizens carrying excessive arms. I can understand right to guns, bur one must invite reality and consequence of this right and be sensible, in particular how government and military will always have upper hand when it comes to weapons. The 2nd amendment refers to well organised militia, which I view in same vein as Yes you have right to access guns as community to protect themselves rather than individual protecting himself.

While I understand where you're coming from, think about this: Naturally people don't want to cause a burden or drama. As a hard-of-hearing guy (80% loss since birth both ears) I can say that I prefer to be prepared and know ahead of time. Long time ago I got tired of having to repeat myself, or explain why this or that needs to be done (as it's different for a hearing person), it becomes a "drama queen" like situation inadvertently. My life is so much easier when I realized I need to know what my differences are, not always easy to find out, but wise for me to make it a habit. Now I adjust myself in my situations, and this is a perfect example... the biggest point to take is that most of the world are hearing, and we don't expect them to know or understand the differences of what is likely taken for granted; we know we get miss understood all the time and we like to avoid it. I hope that gives you a different take on looking at this from our shoes...

Both of these things, though seemingly harmless to the driver, are huge red flags that they train us on. I guess it helps to be open minded. I'd probably feel pretty helpless at first :/

I hear you. Ive lived 54 of my 60 years being profoundly deaf, living, raising a hearing family, and surviving in the hearing working world as a public service employee. Everyday has been a blessing to get by, overcoming communication challenges at times when unawareness of perception from co workers and public hearing world, criticisms for being allowed to work such jobs for being deaf, being labeled a liability, and yet still, being able to keep my faith in God that keeps me proving and silencing many of the critics wrong over time....well, not all of them. Hearing people around me has been like hearing them speak a different language. Only a person(or 2) in front of me i can engage a conversation with hearing , face to face, and lip reading help. However, We deaf people are visual people. We are gifted in things we can do what the hearing world cannot. The hearing world may have a luxury of opportunities that we dont have, but thinking common sense, there are more we can do that does not apply to the hearing world. That is why educating awareness should be adopted as equal opportunity for all. Diversity, in my understanding, is having the opportunity, proven by skills, abilities, common sense, and experience, to pursue a successful career. And not being hindered by a certain perception of difference.

It is not just habit. Using lip movements and facial expressions is a very important part of sign language. Many signs can mean more than one thing and which word you mean is shown by mouthing the word in question while forming the sign with your hands. Sometimes you don't mouth the entire word but only a certain syllable of it. There are very distinct rules about this in sign language. You cannot do proper signing without also using lip movements and facial expressions. Sign language teachers stress this a lot! This is why lip movements are also used by people who were born deaf and are non-verbal.

butterflycaught900 But if the deaf person does not feel comfortable using their voice in front of strangers? Just because they have guns does not mean that they should not put some effort into communicating with people they want to arrest. If a police officer shoves a deaf peson to the ground because he did not realise they're deaf, then that police officer clearly lacks the ability to try and understand before assuming a threat. A police officer who assumes threat before anything else is not fit to be a police officer. Such a person is paranoid, and that is a mental instability, which is and/or should be a ban on gun use. In my country, you can not have a gun or other similar weapons if you are mentally unstable - but in return, I don't need to fear that I will be shot by a police officer because of a mere misunderstanding.

For second, what if they mistake your wordless attempts at communication for, like, painful moans or something? The only one who can really be held accountable is the police officer. Someone who has a gun should be able to make people stay where they are and analysing whether they're a threat or not without knocking them down.

I do not believe everything you say because I got beated up by 2 cops for NO reasons...(I just had the chest surgery and I tried to tell them, they just laughed.. okay.. fine) I live in a small city and I have been silenced for more than 10 years.... I didn't know where to go to but still labeled me as police beater or whatever... I have TWO degrees from colleges and yet I could not find job because of that... it ain't right and now I am sooo scared of polices and sheriffs...And on the other side I didn't know that I was supposed to ask for an interpreter or an attorney at that time so I lose and then I found about ADA 7 years later... I asked them about it.. they said too late to filed a complained or whatever so I just gave up... To the day I still hate them.. PEROID!!!

All these kids saying "kill the police," have no balls. All talk, no walk. You'll also be the first to call the police when you're mugged.

I actually don't know why the deaf are allowed to drive, and I am not saying that to be mean. Driving is just as much about hearing what is going on around you as seeing, and if a person can't hear a siren or a car horn or anything else, they are missing half the things they need to be a safe driver.

Should deaf people even be driving? because I got a driving to endanger ticket for wearing headphones years back. Makes no sense.

@@Irisroot what you didn't see is Claire's response since she deleted it, but for some reason you feel the need to tell me that I am the insulting one. My original comment on this video was not inquiring about why it is legal for deaf people to drive. It was a rhetorical question and if fully capable person is fined for wearing headphones, a deaf person should not be permitted to drive. So, I don't need your suggestion nor opinion about who has the attitude.
