Feds try to eliminate housing for the deaf — at complex built for hearing-impaired:

Arizona is defying a federal order to eliminate apartments for deaf seniors at a housing complex built specifically — for the deaf.

“I think it’s about the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard in a while,” said Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., who attempted to negotiate the impasse. “There are a lot of stories of out-of-control regulators, but this just seems to be going to the extreme.”

In 2005 the federal government helped build Apache ASL Trails, a 75-unit apartment building in Tempe, Ariz., designed specifically for the deaf. Ninety-percent of the units are currently occupied by deaf and deaf-blind seniors.

Now this is the corker. The federal Department of Housing and Urban Development says Apache ASL Trails “violates civil rights law” because it shows a preference for the hearing-impaired. Are you kidding me? Typical government mentality. The right hand never knows what the left hand is doing or better yet thinking.

How can a facility that was built specifically for the deaf not show preferences to the deaf?
I think the guys behind the pens have to be deaf, blind and mentally impaired.

Is the federal government ever going to quit looking like a bunch of retard I know people??
