Today, a 51 year old man in Key West was arrested for being belligerent during a police check. He's charged with felony assault on a LEO and resisting arrest. He's listed as "disabled". Do we grant disability status too easily?
Granted, there are many fakers on disability. But there are also many, many of us who deserve it and need it desperately. Tighten the examination process if possible without denying legitimate claims.
It amazes me how many civilians are "disabled"and get paid monthly by the federal government but Military members lose legs/arms/sight etc and the government looks for ways to delay their benefits an most aren't considered "disabled". It sickens me!
Maybe, but I also want to receive disability checks. I regularly fail the reality check so I'm mentally disabled, fork over some money, dear government ;)
My thoughts, having seen the man and the fact that he fought means he's not freaking disabled but able bodied, he's not crazy either. So why disabled? They should check again.
