Touretters Face Continued Job Discrimination

http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/warren-county/express-times/index.ssf/2011/06/hackettstown_man_accuses_two_t.html Now just how then are those of us with Tourette Syndrome supposed to be able to support ourselves financially, if we're not guarenteed earned income? If we are not granted employment opportunities, then we'd have not choice but to go on disability. But it is difficult to win an SSI claim, and besides we shouldn't be expected to. At least the subject of the above article doesn't suffer from coprolalia, unlike the man in this case. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/mi-court-of-appeals/1062748.html I just feel that all people should have the right, and duty, to work for a living. Something which was recognised under the Soviet constitution no less. "ARTICLE 118. Citizens of the U.S.S.R. have the right to work, that is, are guaranteed the right to employment and payment for their work in accordance With its quantity and quality. The right to work is ensured by the socialist organization of the national economy, the steady growth of the productive forces of the Soviet society, the elimination of the possibility of economic crisises, and the abolition of unemployment." And furthermore I believe that indivisuals should not expect to have the right not to feel offended. Coprolaliacs work, live, and shop, all around you. As Abraham Lincoln once said, "better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt". So though some might not like me stating so, I feel that any woman whom complains when touretters blurt out the word "b***h" , and/or a black person whom gives grief over hearing a touretter utter the word "n****r", is behaving like the epiphets in question. For those with coprolalia do not intend to speak inappropiately. When this particular symptom strikes it happens in a blink of an eye, and often there is not enough time to do anything about it. This song describes the experience well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhIlqBqRtuw
