>Hi Sean,
>you had some experience on the bus. I have gone through that
many times. The
>drivers know the first two front seats are for disabled people.
Why ?
>because there is more room. Back in the 80's when I was
commuting to the
>Helen Keller School to learn computer I had to take a bus in a
bad
>neighborhood to get to the train. A woman got on at a stop and
saw me and
>started to scream about the dog and wanted me thrown off the bus.
She said
>those people shouldn't be allowed on public transportation. The
driver told
>her to step off the bus and wait for another one as he was not
throwing me
>off with my dog. I told the woman those people (meaning me) have
more rights
>to ride the bus than you do. your sighted you can drive a car I
can't. I
>don't have a choice. the driver was very nice and said he liked
my come
>back.
>Another time I was meeting a friend at a bus stop and we were
going on to
>the NYC for the day. She was a cane user and I had my dog. On
the train a
>man got on and asked me to sit in a different car because my dog
was evil. I
>had Parker a black lab. He said black dogs are evil. I told him
I was not
>moving and he could go sit in another car. I told him my dog is
a blessing
>from GOD and its dog backwards no matter what color my dog is .
the
>conductor said he had a turban on his head. My friend was
nervous and said
>that is why I won't get a dog. to many problems. I said there
are no
>problems with you stand up for your rights. Its educating the
public. We had
>a wonderful time in the city with no problems.
