South Africa's Burgeoning Disabled Police Force

Is Ignorance a disability

On Friday

This afternoon at 16:30 I went to Sportsmans warehouse in Stone Ridge (Edenvale).

Upon arrival I noticed an SAPS vehicle pictured here parked in the disabled bay.

When I entered the store there were two SAPS officers making a purchase.

I approached them and asked them if they were on official business - the reply "no".

I then asked why they were parked in a disabled bay.

The reply "there are too many bullets and guns so our heads are not right"

I then replied "being ignorant is not a disablilty".

I was then challenged with "are you insulting me"? To which I replied, "no you are insulting your uniform".

Perhaps too many bullets and guns makes them unstable for duty?

I simply reported this to the head of the Edenvale Community Policing Forum - he is taking action.
