Words/phrases you used:
- "special"
- "normal"
- "vulnerable"
- "they're all very considerate, polite and respectful"
What a load of hogwash, my friend.
Like me, I suspect that most blind or vision impaired people find this kind
of drivel pretty offensive. Vision impaired people do not have superhuman
powers, and would prefer to be treated with the respect afforded other
members of the community, and NOT be subjected to this outmoded patronising
parody of pity which you present above.
