You apparently didn't read what I said. Let's start from the beginning, shall we?
It is asked: "Now how many small businesses have been shut down by it?", with 'it' meaning the ADA.
I answered: None in GA. I did not speak for small businesses anywhere else in the USA, be it New York, Illinois, or even California (noted for its weird hippy laws). I said "None in GA." which means "No small businesses have been shut down due to the ADA in GA."
You then said: "A simple google of 'ada lawsuits' may take you out of fantasyland."
I googled. I found records of ADA lawsuits in GA, the majority of which failed. I found NO records of ADA lawsuits shutting down a small business in GA. So I replied, "Lawsuits do not equate business shut down.", meaning "Google does not substantiate your claim that googling 'ada lawsuits' and 'ga' show evidence of small businesses being shut down by ADA lawsuits in GA.
In all of this thread since answering the first question, my response has been limited to GA alone. Where are you getting that I was speaking for the whole nation?
