Oh, I hear ya. And totally agree!

I have ADHD. Technically that is a handicap. But i live with it.

Apparently anxiety is a handicap too. A friend of mine's wife has it, and is on government assistance because of it ;-/ oh. Has handicap plates too.

Whether. There's one handicap you can overcome.

Glad to help.

Why would anyone with an ounce of sense go to Walmart to begin with?

Please... don't tell us any more. This kind of thing is rampant in our "take a pill" society. Appalling.

Oh and I agree with that 100%

Hence why i deal with it and dont complain about it, or tell everyone "I cant do that because of X"

The issue is that some people have the "handicap people don't have sports/flashy cars" thought. This is a topic that comes up from time to time on all forums related to sports/flashy cars. I guess people think handicap people are in constant hardship with no fun/hobbies.

One of the biggest problems are the a-holes who park there then jump out in their jogging suit and run into the store, but the placard/plate is actually because of their spouse, who is at home. Meanwhile, the person who really needs the spot has to park out in the lot and are banging stuff into the side of my vehicles trying to get in and out of theirs.
