Sue, first thank you for taking the time to explain this so thoroughly. Second, thank you as well for the address. I honestly think more information needs to be out there to let Guests who would try something like this know this really isn't a time saver, it's an accommodation for people with...

Agreed. We used it on HM to avoid the stretching room which is what led to all of this. Our youngest can't deal with the tight enclosed space, blackout etc. It sets him off. So we hoped to avoid the stretching room. They found a way for us to do so and basically wait in line, go in the...

Bill to my knowledge the fact is that Disney quite simply does not have an alternate area set up for many of it's attractions, especially in MK due to it being built in the early 70s. Do we go up expecting the Fast Pass route. As I stated previously, if it meant waiting double the time in a...

We kept our GAC from last time just to be on the safe side, and all we asked was that he be provided an alternate area to wait. No front of the line stuff etc. The reason we ask for this is so primarily he can be kept calmer during his day and also if he does have a melt down in line a.) it's...

See that's what I thought too, but she just stated that they could just refuse to give one if they didn't "believe the child had Autism". The other two CMs also stated they had spoken with families refused GACs due to the Guest Relations staff not believing or recognizing the signs of ASD...

We just got back from WDW last week and we had a good time. But, we did have a melt down at Haunted Mansion due to the changes. We worked to resolve it with the CMs there, but I did go to Guest Services to state that there are some issues with how the GACs are being handled by CMs. What the...

No, but people do. Either through defense, negligence or malice.

It's not. But, they took a gamble on her being armed and having a good aim. This was a risk that apparently they were willing to take for pain meds.

Fine, let's take assumptions out of the equation. She had a legal right to defend her home, herself and her child. She didn't have to run anywhere. You seem to be the only one on this thread insisting that she had other options. When in all reality, regardless of the availability of...

We knew from around 18-24 months that the development we were seeing or not seeing in this case was indicative of something more. So, I had our youngest son tested at Easter Seals. I cannot recommend them enough for parents starting out trying to find out what is going on. We started with a...

My thoughts exactly. I am less worried about those who have registered their weapons, and more worried about those who have unregistered weapons for criminal purposes.

Okay, I'll play along:

Yes, b/c it's so hard to catch up to a woman running with an infant in her arms and a cell phone.

Sorry but comparing this to some media whipped up frenzy or where she was out looking for trouble by owning a gun is completely different to what actually happened. She was in her rural home far away from the inner city (and before this she probably did feel safe there), two people were trying...

My oldest has started going to the range with DH, and we are going to sign him up for the next firearms safety course with our local NRA chapter. I would much rather he understand the dangers involved in handling a weapon than not. I am not crazy pro-gun, but hey, at least he knows the damage...

Or, "There must be 50 ways to love your lever?!":lmao:

cornflake, have you ever lived in a rural area? Like, somewhere that has neighbors, oh, about every mile, 5 miles, 10 miles? When crap like this happens, running to a neighbors house isn't an option. And seriously, my first thought when I read the article was if she ran out the back door with...

When my DH was working out here before we moved out for several months I was on my own with the kids for long stretches of time. Before he left he took me to the range for several weekends to shoot, showed me how to take the safety off of every gun, load them, clean them, etc. We had a safe...

I actually liked what the dispatcher said. When asked, "Can I shoot them?" by the Mom, the dispatcher very calmly and matter of factly says: "I can't tell you to do that, but you do what you have to to protect you and your baby!"

Never heard of anything akin to anti-princess. In fact more and more of what I see in stores, out and about etc. seems to glorify BEING a princess. Didn't even know this was a platform.
