Speaking as a man disabled since birth (pre-natal stroke affecting my left arm & leg) I put forth that this kind of gov’t initiative has nothing to do with “helping” people with disabilities - it is strictly about the exercise of power. Forcing the citizenry to do things which make no sense, waste money and may actually injure those it purports to help. Forcing people to do things against their will is just a way of showing who has power and who doesn’t.

Our fearless leaders and their minions exercise power as a revenge on a world they see as having snubbed, teased, or not played with them when they were kids. Our leaders were the kids always picked last to be on the team.

Coming from the turdball who made fun of the Special Olympics, at that. You are right. This is not about equal opportunity, this is the nanny state on steroids.

Now it is the duty of the federal government to insure that no kid gets hurt feelings if an unfortunate reality prevents him from playing the sport of his choice. Sorry, ain't buying.

True. I suspect it’s also about helping the unions,as these students will surely need unionized aides to assist them in the athletic activities.

We are living in a world ruled by lesser men.
