Wondering why my post about special needs customers causing a delay in the event of an emergency exit, just the same as a "passenger of size" therfore being unsafe for other who are trying to exit never posted? Are you censoring what you do and do not post on here??????

So from my understanding your policy for "customers of size" is not only for the comfort of other passengers but most importantly their safety, due to the fact they may slow the exit process in the event of an emergency or may block other passengers from making their exit. My biggest concern then turns to "customers with special needs" I bet it would be pretty unsafe to have someone who cannot walk try and exit the plane in an emergency considering they would probably need the assistance of at least two crew members or other passengers (which would then block others from a timely exit)....am I correct? That would without a doubt hold up the emergency exit process....right? So I am going to assume for the "safety" of other passengers you should probably kick my 14 year old son ,who suffers from Muscular Dystrophy and cannot walk, off the plane in April when we take him to Orlando? I know for a fact removing him off the plane in an emergency situation would without a doubt hold up the exit process! I do beleive in that situation we would be dealing with discrimination. What's the difference in a "passenger of size" taking a little longer to exit the plane in an emergency and a passenger with special needs taking longer to exit the plane????? Wouldn't there then be a lawsuit since that is considered discrimionation under the Americans With Disabilities Act? Please explain the difference, because in my eyes there is none!!!!
