Short background: My mom is dating a guy who is paralyzed from the chest down.
When we run errands that only take a short while, it's easier for my mom to run into the store to get what it is, than going through all the trouble of getting into the wheelchair and getting out of the vehicle, etc. This day, Kenny (mom's boyfriend) needed to get something for a neighbor, so we stopped at an Ingle's (grocery store). Kenny parked in a handicapped spot and mom went into the store. I sat in the front seat and we talked while we waited.
The sighting is this. I saw a guy deliberatly (I mean he literally made sure it was in the perfect spot) park his shopping cart in front of the van doors (they swing out and the lift comes down). I couldn't believe it. It was rude and insensitive (and he was damn lucky that Kenny didn't need to get out or I would have laid into this guy). The worst part? The shopping cart corral was right near that guy's vehicle
I was too in shock to say anything to the guy, but I seriously made some angry remarks about him to Kenny (who saw the whole thing too).
It still kind of angers me to think that the guy was an insensitive moron and a jerk to boot....
