Auggie---I am glad we are back on track here. I am hoping that your shorts are good tasting ones.   We are talking of a legal issue here and discrimination is the red flag thrown out to incite the bull in the closet.

I don't know your country, but here in the U S we have local laws and federal laws. Rather than getting into a litany of that, suffice it say, legalisms are involved and "discrimination" is not the issue here. Some believe it is, but if they were to look at local ordinances, "grandfather" clauses, etc; they would see that discimination is not the issue.   Current zoning laws are.   Period

The hospital has shown its openness and has helped in any way it could. After that we have to rely on the rule of local law.

Madeliene: Not being a person versed in such clinicology I cannot comment on whether or not such a syndrome might exist. It might--like PTSS and is exactly what I was referring to above---we cannot immediately call everything we percieve not in our ken as discrimination.

Last time I looked we still have local laws and federal laws (and state laws) and we have to navigate these fields. Quite different than shouting "discrimination"---as one could in the era of Nazi prominence. Or in the era of "Jim Crow"---and, yes, I equate the two.


Happily--other posters notwithstanding---we are better than that now---and surely not perfect.
