What what what? I am fairly certain thats the way it is because they are handicapped. Often more than not its not fair for them to sit in the sun and such, It isnt exactly something that goes against any rights. We all have the same rights, just because they can go to the front of lines doesnt mean they have more rights?

I'm not sure if you exactly understand the idea of equal rights. Someone cutting the line in front of you for whatever reason doesn't instantly mean that they have more rights and somehow you have less rights.

I'm hoping that the example you gave in your post is just badly worded/thought out...What what what? I am fairly certain thats the way it is because they are handicapped.

We all have the same rights, just because they can go to the front of lines doesnt mean they have more rights?

Moving to the front of a line because one's handicapped has nothing to do with rights. I was under the impression that you meant equal rights as in politically, such as gay marriage.

Rights and privileges are different things.

Actually it does kind of. Because in there state they are not able bodied which in fact makes the bodies functions as a whole compramised. So yes it does, just because you can stand out in the sun doesnt mean that a parapaledgic can do the same. Thats why they get to use the elevators, they park closer and such. Because things are harder for them then the rest of us. So yes we dont deserve special privelages. The handicapped on the other hand do.

Actually it does. There are handicap parking spaces, automatic door-openers for the handicap, etc... . The handicap have a harder time walking (as some use wheelchairs so they cannot walk), so it's courteous to allow them to have a parking space closer because for people who can walk, it's generally not such a big effort to walk from a parking space further away. For the people in wheel chairs it is a greater effort and it's more dangerous as they cannot easily go in between the parked cars as other people can.

The fact that the handicapped can go ahead in line proves equality exists a little

All that it shows is people tend to be more courteous towards the handicapped and the handicapped may get different privileges. How does it shows equal rights or equality though?
