This is Truly Sad, Not All Disabilities Are Apparent from Looking at Someone: Racist Note Left on Disabled Man’s Car Windshield



Silver Spring, Maryland - A man says someone left a racist note on his car windshield after he parked in a handicapped spot at a Silver Spring shopping center.

D'Anthony White uploaded a picture of the note to Facebook. It included the N-word and said, "The only thing hadicap [handicap] on you is your brain you lazy n******." FOX 5 has blurred the N-word from the note.

White, who has a vision impairment, said the note was left even though he displayed his parking placard.

On Facebook, White explained how Sunday's incident was not the first time he has encountered problems because of his disability, which may not be apparent to everyone he meets.

"I try not to let any of the ignorance bother me too much - then they've won," White said.
