News Flash: Missing deaf girl is found safe.

G'day Everyone. It's a bit of breaking news a bit, but there is a great relief in the deaf community of San Francisco tonight.

The missing deaf girl has been found SAFE.

NBC11.com reports the story: http://www.nbc11.com/news/17139880/detail.html?psp=news&rss=bay.

So we should thank God that there has been a resolution and that she is safe. Now I'm hope that some child social workers will step in and make sure this deaf kid doesn't step out of sight again!

Semper FI!

Mute? good grief? That news station still using that old arcade term?

W. David Samuelsen,

We ought to embrace the use of "mute" to show our deaf pride.

I don't see anything wrong about some journalists specifically define that this deaf-blind girl is a mute herself to give the whole picture.

Or you probably is right about unfairly labeling someone deaf.

We ought to do the survey among hearing people to describe and define what they really think of "mute". What are their interpretation?

I always enjoy your comments, W. David Samuelsen. Thanks for posting the updated newspaper report about the safe return of deaf-blind girl, Deaf Sherlock Holmes. I will be happy to be your "Mr. Watson" which I do all dirty work while you sleuthing around and get all the credits. Aha!

I could see that the missing deaf-blind girl report came from real panicked mother of that girl. Hire another Anne Sullivan to wrest this deaf-blind girl and slap on her face from putting on excessive wrinkles or ugly face ! Just kidding about this one!

Agree with David Samuelsen about mute. They keep contuine to call that MUTE?

I am totally sick of hearing it all the time.

Excuse me that I put my comment for off the track but to tell you something important. I learn from online newspaper today that most judges are sided with law enforcement - not civilians or people. They listen to the law enforcement than people. Just inform you all. People must defend the judges and law enforcements. I believe judges are wrong to support siding with law enfor....... They are sick-mental supporting. How to solve this?
