This guy is an ambulance chaser, nothing more. The core of the law is not unreasonable, the exploitation of the law is.
If you run a public business, aren't you required by law to make your business accessible to handicap people?

I know a friend of mine owns a business locally and he decided to install four large freezers - like you where you buy frozen food at your grocery store.... And once he got everything installed he was told during an inspection that he had to increase the number of handicap parking spaces because his business was now considered a grocery store. Does anyone have any idea how much it costs to hire a firm to plan out how to re-arrange two hundred parking spaces, no less how much it costs to get it done?

And don't get me started on the handicap plates. My buddy is considered "100% medically retired" by the federal government. He can walk fine. He has "headaches". He doesn't need a handicap plate. And oddly enough, seems to me like everyone who has handicap plates seems to walk fine. If your not in a wheel chair, you don't need handicap plates.
