People everywhere, irrespective of who they are, can be verbally abused at any time by anyone - there is no prerequisite of being 'disabled etc' for this to happen.
I can probably understand where your 'frustrations' are coming from Richard, but by taking your quote in the way you (hopefully) didn't intend it to be taken, one could assume your only concern is abuse given to the disabled . . and therefore dismissive of all others.
Simply trying to point out that the most innocent of statements could - by those who look for it - be construed as something it isn't
No disrespect intended, the 'unfairness' of life is there for all to see, and at least you have the courage to speak up when you feel it's needed.
