As a color blind person, I hope you fuging run into a problem where you have to complain about something that you can't help. 

 

The NFL is right to take it seriously (there is already talks about how they will use color blind tests for future uniform displays)

 

30 million males in America alone are color blind. Yeah, let's not count them. 

It's something like 1 in 12 or 1 in 20 males are color blind.

Didn't know we had any color blind folks on here. Interesting.

i have Deuteranopia and i don't promote that I am color blond because people hear those words and then they ask, "Can you see any color" and "What color is that?" and point to 100 objects around the room.

Same. The bullshit questions always pop up. Like the guy asking how color blind people get their license. Wtf.

Didn't know it was that common. Wow.

I dated a girl in college who, when she found out I was colorblind, went thru my closet and put together my clothes for me for a week without asking. And then from then on at random times she would ask me stupid poo like that guy about the traffic lights and poo.

Its not a bullshit question, its one of the most commonly asked questions about color blindness.  Of course you could see a light on a stop light at night and tell if it was the top light or the bottom that was lit up but can a color blind person see it in the day, especially facing the sun.  As someone who is not color blind it is a very legit question.

Would this be your position if you were color blind? 

Just asking.  I see this as a good reason NOT to wear certain colors.

I didn't realize the number was that high. I'm sorry for being a dick about it guys. Forgive my ignorance.

You are not a dick--we all say things like that.   I appreciate your response ---it is aligned with the class you normally display.

Thank you. I hate being a jerk about things and when I'm called out, I want to make amends as quickly as possible.

For the record, I do now think that the NFL should take whatever means necessary to make sure the colorblind can differentiate between the teams in a game.

They are not really red and green.  Green is a blue green.  There are strict rules regarding the red and green color for exactly this reason

I don't think colorblindness means what you think it means. Yes, I can physically tell which light is lit up, because it's an illuminated light, no matter the color. Staring into it with the sun behind it is about the same as someone that's not colorblind staring into it. 

 

Then, you also have to factor that LED traffic lights illuminate slightly different, giving a blueish hue to the green light. 

 

On top of that, you're also making the assumption that every colorblind person has deuteranopia which is not the case at all.
