In regards to the end of the video, I would have loved to see captions. Please do not forget about the late-deafened who have not yet learned ASL.

Let's trend this lightly! Some folks have rights not to vote but then again, it is important to have your "voice" heard. By being registered to vote your "voice" will be counted!

[mimedef]

It is important for Deaf, Hard of Hearing folks to gather again from time to time to preserve our resources. The more people the better! It's easy to register... Your voice counts! I used to be like you. Please join us.. I will be there! (I'm taking the day off for the cause.)

[MoodyBtch]

I'm willing to be there for support, etc.. but I'll not vote!! as most of times they dont do what they "promised"...

[ridor9th]

Then you have no right to protest or complain because your inability to vote in the first place led the politicians to sit back and relax!

[MoodyBtch]

thats fine w/me!!! but help others..

[MoodyBtch]

I've NEVER registered to vote!! for many many reasons.. so not sure if will do any good for me to show up for support??? Let me know then..

[mkrajnak]

maybe it is time for you to register and make your voice heard... never too late to show up. talk with your rep and tell them why you didn't register and should the rep convince you to vote? Still important for you to come! :)

[MoodyBtch]

I've never watch news, &/or buy newspaper.. so whats the point for me to vote?? while mostly still not CC for election times..

[ridor9th]

Not to register for any reason is terrible and bad excuse.

Register yourself -- immediately.

If the President, Congressmen, State Legislators, Governors and city leaders do something and you complain, you can't do that because you are not registered to vote. That is very, very, very hypocritical of you.

I am ordering you to register now.

I have a friend who is gay. He has never registered to vote, so he's never been able to vote on issues that are so vitally important to him.

If people to register / don't vote, then we let OTHERS run our lives, IMO. I'm physically HC, have to get ride to vote booth, a SERIOUS pain (literally and figuratively), but know it's SO important to have my voice heard.

It's up to you, obviously, as it is for my friend. But if vote goes AGAINST what U want, can't complain EVER about the outcome.
