Ableism Enables Ableism

Background:

I have hyperacusis. I am often incapacitated by loud noises especially painhammers/backup beepers. I have ear protectors and ear plugs, but they aren’t enough. I explained that I have been hit by painhammers/backup beepers while crossing the street, and been forced to curl up in excruciating pain.

On the other hand, if the fetal-position-in-the-middle-of-the-street risk is that significant, I also think you are an equally significant risk to both yourself and others if you are allowed to be out in public.

They seem to imply that, they think because abled people keep hurting me, they think abled people should lock me up.
