[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"I don't mean to defend that woman parking in a handicapped spot, but dogmatism along with rude behavior in daily life is something that annoys me a lot. Certain people take pleasure in playing the Sheriff."</blockquote> Well, that really depends upon why he was doing it. If he thought "hey, she's doing something illegal, so I'm going to play sheriff", then I'm unimpressed. But, if he thought "hey, she's being an asshole, so I'm going to make her stop", I agree w/ him. After all, parking in a handicap space when you don't need it is a pretty jerky thing to do. Kinda like if you saw someone w/ a seeing-eye dog, so you bump into them and tell them to watch where they're going. If you saw the woman do that, wouldn't you feel alright calling her a bitch, even in front of her kid? <blockquote>"According to the rest of the tale, the woman moved. Objective achieved, or so it would seem . . . but which is the better lesson (or 'fine example') for the child? "1. Do not park in handicapped spots. "2. If you yell and curse at people, you will be feared and will get what you want."</blockquote> I'd say the better lesson is the one you didn't mention: If you park in handicap spaces when you're not supposed to, people will be hateful toward you.
