Well Dana, I was on top of the guy, he slid me off onto the ground, looked around for help, noone offerred. So, he got down on one knee and I grabbed around his neck and somehow he threw me back into the chair. Keep in mind 50-100 people watched the whole thing and did nothing.     ron c7 --- O

The question is not how a person gets disabled..just simply if they are disabled or not. Sad as it is a 350 pound person is disabled, they cant walk far and need some sort of mobility device in most cases.   ron c7 --- On Thu, 6/18/09, Daniel Espinoza wrote: From: Daniel Espinoza Su
