New Obama Regulations Limit Slope on Mini-Golf Holes - Polidicks

[quote]Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, June 27, 2012, 7:37 PM It’s an Obama world. New government regulations limit the slope of the mini-golf holes and would force businesses to allow miniature horses on their premises as guide animials. CNS News reported: Although the Justice Department has extended the deadline for America’s hotels to comply with regulations regarding handicap access to swimming pools, new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines are already being applied at miniature golf courses, driving ranges, amusement parks, shooting ranges and saunas. Among the provisions in the “Revised ADA Standards for Accessible Design,” which went into effect on March 15, is one requiring businesses to allow miniature horses on their premises as guide animals for the disabled. Another limits the height of slopes on miniature golf holes. “The new standards, for the first time, include requirements for judicial facilities, detention and correctional facilities, and recreational facilities,” Assistant Attorney General Thomas E. Perez said during a conference in Baltimore on June 7. “We expect the implementation of these accessibility standards to open up doors for full participation in both the responsibilities, such as jury duty, and the benefits, such as playing at city parks, of civic life for people with disabilities,” he said.[/quote] [url]http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/06/good-grief-new-obama-regulations-limit-slope-on-mini-golf-holes/[/url]

I made the mistake of looking around that source. My brain.

...Oh for fuck's sake. Come on now. Trying to get us universal healthcare: Good. Trying to tell us how steep minigolf courses can be: Bullshit.

Miniature horses are not suitable guide animals. Dogs, yeah. Cats if the person needing the guide animal is deathly allergic to dogs. But a miniature horse?!

The aforementioned miniature horses are about the same size as an average dog, live a lot longer and are no less trainable than a dog.

I don't even get why this is directed at Obama. It is just the ADA trying to make everything more handicap accessible. It isn't like Obama woke up one morning and thought that it was too tiring to walk up a steep golf hill.

They will look for anything and everything just to make Obama look bad even if he has no involvement at all.

This is shitty, the ADA shits all over a lot of things.

Sounds like an onion article.

Did they just take take a sentence from a legit regulation out of context or is this real?

The founding fathers are rolling in their graves!

But the steep mini golf holes are the best ones

Now watch as the disabled hijack miniature horses and take heads with their clubs. It's only a matter of time.

[quote=timmah638]The founding fathers are rolling in their graves![/quote] They're rolling down the too steep mini golf slopes.

Ah more stupid shitty regulations. This isn't as dumb as the cripple swimming pool elevators but it's close.

I'm starting to think this is just a pork bill just to make it seem like Obama is wasting time.

[QUOTE=TestECull;36563933] I'm sorry, what?! Miniature horses are not suitable guide animals. Dogs, yeah. Cats if the person needing the guide animal is deathly allergic to dogs. But a miniature horse?![/QUOTE] you seem to be unaware of the height of a miniature horse, the average shetland pony is 4ft tall if i remember correctly, miniature horses are even smaller than that.

[QUOTE=Lambeth;36568152]What's wrong with pool elevators?[/QUOTE] They are a dumb thing to force every public pool to have. Especially considering they aren't cheap nor will they last long considering what chlorine does to metal. Also brings up some liability issues if the handicapped person drowns in the pool. Because if you need a lift to get into a pool chances are you shouldn't really be in there.

Articles like this piss me off. Whoever wrote the article just says "HUR DUR ITS AN OBAMA WORLD" even though Obama had absolutely 0% to do with this decision. It was probably some interest group for the disabled that rallied their congressmen for this regulation. EDIT: Just looked at some of the other articles on this website. Some of the most bias skewed bullshit I have ever read.
