Blind Thugs Loot Target

Justice is blind, all right — blind as a moonbat. The following is not a joke:

The Target retail chain will make its Web site accessible to the blind and pay $6 million to visually impaired Californians who have tried unsuccessfully to use the site, under a settlement announced Wednesday.

The nationwide settlement, filed with a federal judge in San Francisco, is intended as a model for the retail industry, said a lawyer for the National Federation of the Blind, which sued Target in 2006.

You would think Target would be in charge of how its website is designed, not some judge in San Francisco. After all, the website is Target’s property, not the government’s. But that’s assuming there is still such a thing as private property, which is becoming increasingly disputable.

Mr. Magoons from the National Federation of the Blind will be monitoring Target’s website for the next three years, to ensure that it complies with their demands. If they find something they don’t like, they can loot Target — and Target’s customers — for some more free money.

Next, blind people should start suing the makers of cars and cameras, which clearly discriminate in favor of people who can see.
