Yep, they were after not only the completely blind, but the partially blind, all the way down to people who just wore glasses. I kid you not! They try to put bills for this this through various legislatures in the States. This was America, not Nazi Germany remember..
Fortunately that policy never got approval or we would never have got one of the best Rock Musicals of all time.
