Did a quick search on the web and there are quite a few websites talking about it and a petition.

E.g.

I have no plans to go there [went to euro disney 15 yrs ago and that put me off] but I think its very wrong.

I'll have a look at the petition.

How disgusting that people think its OK to hire a disabled person for the day, or that the disabled person thinks its OK to pimp their disability just to get on a fucking roller coaster.

My son hates rides & theme parks but if eh ever got the urge to go on a ride I know it would have to be NOW... or we would have a very upset 45 minute wait if we were in the queue or elsewhere in the park.

I don't think they get it!
Surely they are punishing the majority for the actions of the minority
