AMERICA'S "SPECIAL SPACES FOR SPECIAL PEOPLE" AND IT'S LAW! SUCKS DON'T IT?
HANDICAPPED PARKING SHOULD NOT BE A LEGAL ISSUE
Just how is it that failing to leave a parking space open can be a crime?
In the United States we are a peculiar people. One of our peculiarities lies in our insatiable craving for more laws, rules, and regulation. Not a month goes by that we aren’t demanding further government control and the surrender of more of our rights and freedoms. Today I want to talk about Handicapped Parking.
Okay, I understand that there are those with handicaps who can benefit greatly from parking closer to places of business. I understand that parking in a ‘sole remaining handicapped space’ is reprehensible and just plain ‘rude’. I see this.
What I don’t see is the justification to provide special spaces for special people. I cannot condone granting privilege to someone because of his or her perceived or actual disability. Somehow that just seems wrong.
Is this a civil rights issue? Is this a human rights issue? Is a handicapped person constitutionally guaranteed parking privilege in order to try and ‘even the playing field’?
Look at any Walmart parking lot, festooned with more handicapped parking spaces than you can shake a stick at. There is a plethora of spaces set aside as the exclusive domain of the handicapped.
There are those who abuse and violate these spaces with apparent impunity, and then there are those who are towed, ticketed, or fined for daring to enter this domain of the privileged. The real violation here would be the many laws, rules, and regulations reserving these ‘special spaces’ for the exclusive few, the protected, the handicapped.
I say it’s wrong. That’s the way I feel about it. I’m Max, and that’s the way I see it!
