Disabled guests sue Disney on Segway ban

Hi, to be honest, I with cp could not use the segways for long distance. However the thing you have to realize and you probably wont because your not in my shoes, I would rather walk badly than use a wheelchair. And I would rather use a segway than walk. I dont expect you to understand. But I dont think i am asking too much for you not to act like you do understand. When I walk for long distnaces my feet swell my bones ache. I have built a large tolerence of pain up in my life. So when I say my feet hurt, believe me they hurt. I have gone to doctor with injuries and been asked how the hell did you stand it? To me, small pain is not really noticable. Cause I have built tolerence. SO ANYWAY here is my point to you all. Would you rather stand on a nail. or walk on it. Worse case scenerio, stand. I would not want to use a wheelchair if I could use a segway. My ballence is bad enough that I dont think i could..... but if i could I would choose segway. Would you rather be bulky or streamlined.

And as far as being very accomadating. Until you live in the world as handicapped person, you dont understand needs of handicapped people better than they do. Isnt that a little condescending? Disney could easily EASILY make the machines go slower!
