[nabs-l] staring

[Joshua Lester]

This is another reason why ignorance needs to be dealt with, in
sighted communities.
I was at a Taco Bell, 30 minutes away from my hometown.
There were two boys laughing at me, because of my blindness.
My brother got on to them, and they left me alone.
It's a shame, that people that don't know any better make fun of us,
when there's really nothing wrong with us.
Blessings, Joshua
