Brickbat: No Entrance
22nd January 2015
Following a complaint that one entrance to Romare Bearden Park in Charlotte-Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, wasn’t handicapped accessible, officials used benches to block that stairway. Some people are now using another entrance to the park, but others, who presumably aren’t handicapped, are simply going over or around the benches.
Presumably the theory is that if handicapped people can’t use it, nobody ought to be allowed to use it.
