Insensitivity

Where I live, there is an unusually large population of elderly people. We always joke this is the town of the newly wed, and nearly dead. This large population of seniors all seem to ride Electric Scooters. You know the ones. And they all thing they are cars... They drive over peoples feet in stores, on the sidewalks they push people aside practically running them over, on the roads they drive them like they are cars, and on the highway... Well that is something best to be seen. They just don't care: you are in their way, and must get out, and they have a right to be there, tuff to anyone else.

So today I saw the most insensitive thing yet...

I went for a walk around, I wanted to see what all the construction across the street was about, check out the area, you know... Just GET OUT OF THE HOUSE. I decided to cut through the Mc'D's Parking lot to see the buildings behind it, and in that parking lot I saw one of the aforementioned scooters, parked in a spot reserved for the physcally challenged.

Now, this being parked their denoted that this person was well and able enough to walk to the restaurant. I think that they should have left that spot for someone who maybe couldn't make that walk.

I found that being parked their rude and offensive.

Its one thing if they cant walk, the they could.

Maybe they couldn't walk far... But the next spots were not far away.

It just seemed unfair to me, heck, they could had rode it in.

It's just insensitive.
