My cousin commited suicide at age 23 because he did not want to live anymore as a quadropelegic. It was the first experience with human death that I was old enough to appreciate. After living that way for 7 years he developed diabetes and refused his insulin until he died from it. His parents were fortunate not to be sent to prison.
Under NO circumstances would I ever, as an able bodied human, take that minor (to us) convenience away from a HC person. Nor would I ever apathetically sit and watch some asshole do it without giving a shit what that lifestyle is like. The thought of it really steams me. I'd rather take an asskicking from some guy twice my size because I gave him shit for parking there than do nothing. I looked up to my older cousin and to be apathetic would be like telling him I didnt give a shit about his disability.
Sorry to rant, but this topic is very sensitive to me. I hope you said something to that clown.
