[Cagdu] last word

[Ken Volonte]

Hi Juliet.  I was upset by the events last Friday night, but being threatened with arrest will do that to you.  This is a much bigger deal than just an episode between myself and the Stockton Arena.  It has to do with how disabled people are treated at this venue across the board.  People in my row weren't at all shocked or embarrassed when I lost my temper.  One lady and her Grandmother were also forced into this Handicapped row only it was worse for them because they were whisked in an elevator up to the second floor.  Then the Grandmother, in her walker had to walk to the other end of the Arena and walk down a ramp to these seats.  The old woman was still scared at having to control her walker down a steep slant amid a few thousand people.  This is a big deal.  If I have to go to the media, then I will and thank Mike Peterson for the idea.  Bye for now.
