I do some things wrong but I try to do most things right. Especially the easy things, and it cheeses me off when people are absolutely unwilling to do the easy right things.

If you were physically handicapped I could understand why you're raising a stink, but you're not, so why? yeah, why is this one bothering you?

If the lady had two hands she could properly show you how to go fuck yourself. Haha! It's not that hard to get a handicrapper sticker. Bending rules is fun too. I once had a professor who told me that: "There will come a time when you will have to break a very sacred and important rule in life. In order to prepare yourself for this you should bend and/or break several smaller rules along the way." yea man, quit hatin’.

The principal was summoned and the police had to be called. And neither one seemed very disabled. Nothing wrong with their lungs anyway, their raised voices could be heard for half a block. I sincerely hope the people who truly need these spots have access to them, but I see loads of abuse, and human nature being what it is, there are those who could care less about someone else.

Because I believe a good number of people are not, I can see all the handicapped spots being filled by people with bogus excuses and folks who really need them not having them available. There is a store near where I live that has "limited disability" and expectant/new mother parking that requires only honesty to use them. Those spots are always filled. I have a hard time believing there is a bunch of people with injuries and/or new babies in the store at all times. Cham: I could live with your solution, but that would require people to be honest.

She was having a great deal of difficulty moving around was in pain, but she didn't want to take the hassle of getting handicapped parking stickers for just a few weeks of discomfort. So she made a big sign about the leg problem, put it on her dashboard and never got a ticket for no handicapped tags when she parked in those spaces. I think everyone should decide for themselves whether they should use the spaces or not. And everyone else in the parking lot should be able to challenge their decisions. Yesterday I saw a woman who looked perfectly fine use a handicapped space but once she started walking I could see that she was having difficulty breathing. A sick person should not have to get approval from the state to park in the handicapped space. If you bruise your ankle and are having trouble walking temporarily, by all means, use the space. If you are able to walk, get to stepping like everyone else. I had a friend of mine who broke her leg.

I always have a Himalayan trek to the door from where I have to park. If it was me, I'd just as soon not be stared at when I get out of my car. My dad put off getting one because it was embarrassing. Finally his breathing got so bad from his heart disease he had to have one. I don't think he's going to last until this Christmas, but you never know.
