A disabled American army veteran responded in perfect style after a cruel note was left on his car demanding he not use special parking bays because he “didn’t look” handicapped.

The man was left stunned when he returned to his vehicle in Houston, Texas, and discovered the message on his windscreen.

The letter addressed him as “buddy,” before harshly telling him to “stop parking in handicap spots!!!!”

“You DO NOT have a sticker nor do you look handicapped,” it read.

“I have taken a picture of your licence plate and sent it to the office for towing by the courtesy officer. Stop being a jerk!!” it added.

The veteran, who has not been named, wrote out a phenomenal response - where he explains exactly why he has the right to use the bays - before attaching it to a photocopy of the original note he’d received.

A picture of the two letters was uploaded to Reddit, and it’s since gone viral with more than 2.8 million views.

“In the state of Texas, if a vehicle has DISABLED VETERAN licence plates, that vehicle is not required, BY LAW, to have a handicapped placard displayed, nor a handicapped emblem on the licence plate, UNLESS that vehicle is parked on FEDERAL property,” he said.

“If you had bothered to spend 30 seconds and pull the miniature computer out of your pocket to research this then you would have never needed to leave me this offensive note.

"Considering that you took a picture of my licence plate that says: DISABLED VETERAN US ARMED FORCES.

"But it’s cool. You probably just let your emotions get the best of you and felt like being a social justice hero,” he added, before commenting on his appearance.

“Although I may not ‘look’ handicapped to you, I can assure you that the amount of pain I feel from walking due to combat-sustained injuries far supersedes any level of pain you have ever felt in your entire life,” he said.

“Or maybe not… Who am I to say? After all, I don’t even know who you are. By the way, I would love to hear what your idea of a handicapped person 'looks’ like.”

The author then revealed he would frame the original message and “look at it everyday as to remind myself what kind of person NOT to be.”

He signed off with the phrase: “The guy who doesn’t look handicapped.”

Since then NavyMike has adorned his cars with an actual handicaptsticker, as to not further confuse people.

Godbless NavyMike for using stairs many have used succesfully and without injury before.

[Nether Animal]

Lmfao.

[Never1AShow]

The walking in pain with every step = #mypersonalhell.

It feels like I am carrying 315 on my back at all times.

Worked with a chick who had the 'don't look disabled' issue. Security dude saw her walking, asked what her disability was, and she went off: "You can't ask me that. The law says ..." Really laid into the guy.

He had a point, though. Total fraud, had a DMV cousin get her the placard. Real piece of work.

[calfzilla]

Dude sounds just like Navy Mike. Notice how he doesn't state the nature of his disability. Pain?  Which of us over 30 don't have some form of pain most of the time.

[SF1900]

The issue is that Navy Mike can leg press 1,000 pounds without pain, so surely he can walk an extra 10 feet to the grocery store.

I see this shit all the time.  Asians are the fucking worst.  They have a 99 year old grandmother living with them and they get the placard for their car but use it all the time even when the little old Asian isn't with them.

[Eulogy]

I was actually creating a thread specifically about this, but then stopped... I figured NM had had enough. But I am glad ya'll thought otherwise. This is why I love Getbig...

I agree with you 100%. Just because you can get the disabled parking pass doesn't mean you should use it or need it. Obviously Mike who is a competitive bodybuilder and leg presses 1000lbs doesn't need it. I have a couple people in my family who use wheel chairs and it pisses me off when people park in disabled spots whether they have no sticker or have but clearly could do without. Sometimes if we go somewhere with a disabled family member and there are no disabled spots we can still make do but it is more difficult and dangerous.

But if not for the disability, perhaps he'd leg press 1,100.  His life has been forever altered.

There is no doubt in my mind that disabilities are not always visible. There are many disabilities that are invisible (cannot be seen with the naked eye). They are called "invisible disabilities."  So, yes, someone can be disabled without another person realizing it. However, this 100% does not apply to Navy Mike. If he can leg press that much weight, he can walk an extra 10 feet.

You don't know the pain Navy Mike goes through every day supporting his massive square head on his pencil neck.

That is why he most likely did not come in 1st place.

I dont get it

[Sokolsky]

We're steadily and surely heading towards an increasingly more fucked up world. Fucking bananaland out there.
Dumbfucks everywhere thinking their lives matter, and their little shitfests of daily activities are anything other than just that; their personal shitfest.

Posting regurgitated crap for 'likes'. Instant empty gratification for their empty shallow existence. Fuck, we're already in banana land; Matt Kroc is a tranny, playboy doesn't post nudes, fat fucking whales pushed on the masses as 'sexy', positive body bullshit, sharia law soon to be introduced in europe.

[sync pulse]

I dont get it

This is an industrial promotion film about bannanas…
