Distinguished Disability Advocate Kevin Cocks and other members of the Disability Community speak out about the QUT PhD project entitled "Laughing at the Disabled."

Kevin Cocks, who acquired his own disability in 1981 holds a Human Rights Medal (2005), a Centenary Medal awarded 'for distinguished service to disability services in Queensland' (2003) and he was also given 'the Humanities and Human Services Outstanding Alumni Award' by QUT in 2003.

  • they say he who laughs last , laughs the hardest.. people with disablities will have the last laugh

  • Her sign says "Don't Laugh At The Disabled". But... what if they are funny?

  • HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

  • Illogical nordicaryan says we should be getting rid of all disabled people. What? Get rid of Einstein? Get rid of Bill Gates? Genius is precious! Who is without inadequacy? Let that person be the one to cast the first stone. Eliminating disability is too slippery a slope, and once medical science gets on that GE slope humanity will slip down into oblivion. Autism is the next salvation revelation. Following Inspiration, strong autism will wipe hypocrisy off the list of human sins.

  • The people here are speaking out about real issues, and we get ignorant fools on YouTube like this nordicaryan type who feel they are enititled to spewing hate like in his statement... All I can say is I would not fook with Karma.

  • I say you start with yourself.

  • QUT = Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane Australia.

    Australia is not under US jurisdiction.

    Wonder why nobody has commented on this before...

  • QUT appear to be behaving in a disgraceful manner. Do the United States not have an anti discrinination law outlawing discrimination against disabled people@ In Ireland we have the Equal Status Act which allows a disabled person to bring a person to justice who has discriminated against him or her.every year we hear about successful cases won.
