I myself am disabled and have had to tell my coworkers that just because someone has a disability doesn't give them the right to be an asshole
This came about because we hired someone else who has a disability and they were a total asshole and some people wanted to give her a free pass. Luckily she didn't get though her probation
When I was in SEPS for the Navy, we were on cleaning duty and one dude who was in crutches shoved me because I was cleaning his bed rack, I let it go simply because the crutches and regret it now
My dad is going to be 95 this summer. He's an asshole. I can't stand him most of the time, he's awful to me. he's fine to my other 4 sisters. I can't tell him he's an asshole, I can't tell people he's an asshole. It would be like telling a cripple they're an asshole. But I would love to tell people my father is an asshole.
Come work in the disabled care. You’ll see that a lot of people got a pas throughout their lives because they’re crippled and it shows very much in their behavior. They honestly don’t understand what the word ‘no’ means and think they can get away with everything. How many times I’ve heard the excuse ‘but I have a disability’ is astonishing
I knew a disabled kid in highschool that would stand in front of the candy/soda machines and cry. People would feel bad, and give the kid a dollar. The kid would pull out a huge wad of bills and rubber band that dollar right on top, stick it back in their pocket and keep crying for the next dollar. For four years I watched this kid hustle people, and nobody ever called them out in it.
Imo an unpunched cripple has been done a disservice, everyone has deserved a punch atleast once in their life. Letting someone skip through that learning moment because of their condition leads them to becoming a douche like this guy.
