As a sighted person I would find it extremely rude if someone grabbed me me
if I seemed lost. It is ridiculous that many sighted people think that it is
all right to grab a blind person because they are trying to help. A sighted
stranger would not like it if a blind person grabbed his/her arm because
he/she seemed lost.
