Daniel Dvorkin<p>“What would your course of action be if you saw a healthy, <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/able" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>able</span></a>-bodied individual get out of a vehicle that they just parked in a <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/handicapped" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>handicapped</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/parking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>parking</span></a> space?”</p><p>“A number of people close to me have invisible <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/disabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disabilities</span></a>. They <em>look</em> healthy and able-bodied, but they’re really not.

And their <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/physicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physicians</span></a> agree, which is why they’re authorized to park in handicapped spaces. Unless you have the appropriate <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/medical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>medical</span></a> training and have conducted a thorough examination, you have no grounds to dispute this.</p><p>“So if <em>your</em> course of action is to challenge them, shout at them, threaten them, or demand that they prove to your satisfaction that they’re “really” disabled … <em>my</em> healthy, able-bodied course of action will be to introduce you to what <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> feels like, up close and personal. That process won’t be fun for you, but you’ll have a much greater understanding afterward, for whatever remains of your miserable life.”</p><p>Usually I try really hard to avoid being Internet Tough Guy, but there are times it’s the only possible response.
